What does a world without pest control look like? In Gaza, that is not a rhetorical question. Gaza-based content creator @Elina_Yazji speaks with families in Gaza, shedding light on what this means inside displacement camps, where parents are trying to protect their children from insects, rodents, and contamination around their tents. As summer approaches, the risk is growing. Overcrowding, rubble, waste, stagnant water, and sewage have created dangerous conditions for displaced families. Disease will follow without urgent action.
