Teachers work to educate Gazan children in makeshift schools

Season 2024 Episode 251 | 5m 31s

It’s back-to-school season, but in Gaza, 625,000 students have no building to return to. Most of Gaza’s 560 schools have been either damaged or destroyed. More than half of the schools have been directly hit by Israel and the few remaining are now shelters for the displaced. Nick Schifrin reports with producer Shams Odeh.
