Before the war, Hamada Shaqoura was a food blogger. Now, he spends his days cooking to feed children and displaced people in Gaza. And he figured out a way to reach millions on social media without saying a word. His intense stare at the camera as he cooks various dishes has been easy for many to understand. Hamada finally opens up and shares his story in detail with Business Insider. He told us why he sees food as a symbol of resistance and why it’s important for him to cook food people had before the war, like chicken wings, tacos, croissants, and popsicles.
