I've been catching up overnight with 31-year-old Adham al-Batrawi, who was telling me last week of the "creative ways" people in Gaza had found to survive, including turning pasta into an imitation of bread.
"Honestly, I don't really know how to describe the situation here, it's extremely bad," Adham, a graphic designer displaced in central Gaza, said by WhatsApp.
"There's a major shortage of food. I spent the whole day today searching for flour and couldn't find any. Things are getting harder every single day."
He adds the war "has shown us things I never thought I'd witness. I've had to do things I never imagined I'd have to in my entire life. It's heart-breaking".
