Today our correspondent in Gaza offers a window on observing Ramadan amid unimaginable conflict. Ghada Abdulfattah is seeing people around her not only hew to a key tenet of the holy month – charity – but express it more strongly despite daily danger, damaged homes, and extreme food shortages. How do you keep the faith in war? Ghada’s story is a powerful one for us all.
