Wartime food blogger Palestinian activist Hamada Shaquora is nominated as one of TIME’s 100 most influential personalities worldwide in 2024.
Shaquora creatively crafts recipes from the limited ingredients available through aid packages in Gaza. This is hisa name continues to trend on the social media.
“I don’t particularly feel like celebrating, at a time when me, my people and Lebanese brothers and sisters are still facing death 24/7. But i’ll take the moment to emphasize to the whole world, that we -Palestinians – are here, and will always be!” Shaqoura, who cooks meals for displaced children from his tent, said.
His videos, where he cooks and distributes meals, have garnered hundreds of thousands of followers, providing a powerful glimpse into life and resilience under relentless Israeli bombardment.
Through the siege imposed by Israel on Gaza – no food, water and electricity – he beats that by providing well-nourished meals for Gazans to stay alive.
For 2 weeks, no chicken or meat has been available.. so for Today, I made some pasta with white sauce, but unfortunately, meatless! But still, it was popular among my friends (the kids).
