A desperate and destitute tide of humanity has washed into Khan Younis. And there is no help.
Hundreds of thousands fled here from the north on whatever could carry them - cars if there was fuel, horse and cart if one could be found, their own feet if there was no other option.
But in this narrow strip of land, blockaded on all sides and cut off from the rest of the world, options for where one ends up are limited. Safety is never guaranteed. Refugees line the corridors as doctors work on new arrivals injured by Israeli bombs. The din of competing voices fills the air.Hospitals are among the safest places to be in a time of war, protected by international law.Doctors say they have almost nothing to give the stream of new casualties - water is rationed to 300ml a day for patients. Refugees get nothing.
At one school, run by UN relief agency UNRWA, every classroom is filled, every balcony space criss-crossed with clothes lines.But when there is no more room - and there is no more room - humanity inevitably spills out onto the streets, fills the alleyways and the underpasses, and lives and sleeps in the dirt, the dust, the rubble, waiting for something better that might never arrive.
