Despite a ceasefire in place since October, Gaza experiences near-daily violence. At least 940 people have been killed since then, with more than half of the Palestinian enclave under Israeli control, a situation that contravenes the ceasefire terms. Both Hamas and Israel accuse each other of violating the truce.

The 25-year-old man was supposed to get married today.
