You see people stuck in a temporary, ad-hoc shelter.
But when you look at the entire uncropped picture, you can see other interesting details.
A city largely untouched by any bombs, with people living in the apartment buildings around the tent, including one that looks almost luxurious.

And we even see a couple of satellite dishes:

I can't help but wonder why don't the people living in the buildings surrounding the makeshift shelter, like the ones who are enjoying Netflix and football matches in their living rooms, invite their fellow Muslims in to their own apartments?
And when you look up this photo (taken in 2024), we read that the woman has two disabled children. I cannot imagine any Israeli who sees a homeless family with disabled children out their window letting them stay on the street. They would gladly crowd them into their own house rather than leave them in the rain and cold. And in the months after October 7, many Israelis did house the tens of thousands of suddenly homeless Israelis near Gaza and Lebanon.
No one doubts that Gazans are not living in great circumstances, and many indeed are homeless as their cities have been destroyed by Israel rooting out Hamas terrorists and booby traps hidden there. But this specific photo raises more questions than it answers.
