According to Al Jazeera, children with visual and hearing impairments in the Gaza Strip are facing the challenge of being out of school due to the Israeli siege and war. For example, 13-year-old Kenan al-Sabaa's hearing aid cannot be repaired due to a shortage of batteries and parts. The Atfaluna Society for Deaf Children school, which Kenan attended, was partially leveled during the war that began in October 2023 and now serves as a shelter for displaced people. These difficulties highlight the severe impact of Israel's war on Gaza on local children with disabilities.
