Among tents of displaced Palestinians, while Israeli bombs demolish large portions of Gaza, Osama Ayoub continues his passion of coaching boxing. After his boxing club was demolished by Israel’s unrelenting bombardments of civilian areas in Gaza City, Ayoub said he’ll never give up training and coaching despite the “war, bombing, permanent fear all around us.”
From the Abu Ghazi land camp in Khan Younis, Osama Ayoub and Naseem Ayoub spoke to Unicorn Riot about being displaced and continuing their boxing training with no equipment aside from a pillow and a rug to stand on. More in the links below.
