"The IDF confirmed" [fill in the blank with whatever accusation Israel makes about Palestinians] is not a legitimate source, nor a real confirmation of anything. In fact, there is a high probability it is an entirely false piece of propaganda, as has been proven time and again.

Amid a total siege and massive bombing, people in Gaza are on the brink of starvation as they search for food, water, and basic goods. Rasha Abou Jalal reports from Gaza City. “Hunger is crueler than guilt. I didn’t choose this path—it was forced on us."

The suffocating siege has driven people to seek out other unconventional sources of food. After his home was destroyed in the war, Ali Musbah, a young man displaced to a tent near the coast west of Gaza City, recently came upon a sea turtle washed ashore by the waves. Desperation led him to slaughter and eat it.

"The turtle weighed about 50 kilograms," Musbah told Drop Site. "I managed to get around 5 to 6 kilograms of meat from it. My wife cooked it like shawarma, and we shared the food with five other starving displaced families."

Musbah used to work as a fisherman before the war. "We used to catch fresh fish, shrimp, and squid. Now, we only dream about them,” he said. “With fishing banned and the crossings closed, all we have left are canned foods filled with preservatives that have wrecked our health."

"I know the turtle might be an endangered species,” he added. “But hunger is crueler than guilt. I didn’t choose this path—it was forced on us."
