STORYLINE:
Ahmed Arfan, a Palestinian from Rafah who has been displaced along with his wife and four children, has set up a temporary tent for his family in southern Gaza's city of Khan Younis.
"I was forced to sleep in the open for several days. I had to distribute my children and wife among my relatives' tents until I could set up our own," Arfan, 39, told Xinhua.
After a terrible ordeal, Arfan pitched a tent near a landfill in Khan Younis' Mawasi area. "All day long, we suffer from the foul smell of the waste. Mosquitoes and insects plague us day and night, but I have no choice. There are many displaced people here and there is no other place for us," he said.
