Using crutches, Palestinian Mohamed Aliwa leaps from one concrete slab to another, determined that his missing leg won't stop him doing parkour, a sport that brings respite from grim reality in Gaza. The Palestinian teen's right leg was amputated near the knee in 2018 after he was hit by Israeli army fire during protests along the fortified border separating the Gaza Strip from Israel.

Moamen Abu Raida, a 29-year-old Palestinian technician, builds mobility vehicles for the sick and elderly from scraps he finds at the local market in Bani Suhaila, in the south of the Gaza Strip, which he sells for between 850-1000 shekels (200-300 US dollars).

Aliwa dreamed of becoming a parkour professional and decided that he would not let his disability hold him back from achieving it.
