Amid Gaza's Rubble, Orphaned Children Find Solace in a Football

For orphaned teenager Mohammed Eyad Azzam, football has become a lifeline amid war, highlighting the destruction of Palestine's sports system and FIFA's perceived injustices. The 16-year-old lost his parents and brothers in an Israeli airstrike and now cares for his grandmother, finding solace on the pitch. The Gaza football community criticizes FIFA for failing to sanction Israel, while over 1,100 sports figures have been killed and 265 facilities destroyed.
