Life can prove to be very challenging for a deaf parent - This 14-year-old from Palestine wants to change all that
In blockaded Gaza, necessity is not only the mother of invention, but also the mother of resurrecting old fashioned ways to survive. Palestinians are no longer able to bake bread at home by electrical baking ovens because of the escalating electricity dilemma in the Strip. Daily power supply has reached 4 hours per 24 hours. Accordingly, Palestinians turn to bake bread by primitive clay ovens.
