The tiny Palestinian enclave of Gaza has been the focus of Israeli fire for the past month, after Hamas militants attacked Israel, killing 1,400 people and taking hundreds hostage. More than 10,500 people have been killed, most of them women and children, according to health authorities in Hamas-run Gaza. The figures don’t distinguish between civilians and militants. The voices of people living there provide a picture of how life has changed for them under siege and bombardment.
