“We have war, no schools… Yet the children are eager to learn,” Al Ghoul told CNN. Oula Al Ghoul, a Palestinian teacher, has established a makeshift classroom for displaced children in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza. Israel’s bombing campaign has destroyed 123 schools and universities in Gaza, according to the Government Media Office (GMO) there. Several Palestinian children told CNN that days spent learning have been replaced by a struggle for survival. She told CNN on Friday that she had registered for her university course last fall – just before the hostilities erupted.
