11. Women in War with Donia Ashour

The death and destruction, wrought by Israel's bloody war in Gaza has been highly publicised and discussed, rightly so. But what about the day to day lives of those who survive?

How do women manage menstrual cycles when fleeing bombardment and living in refugee camps with tens of thousands of strangers?

In today's episode, Edgar speaks with 23 year old Donia Ashour, a translator from Gaza who had recently graduated with a degree in English Literature when the war began on October 7.

Back in October, Edgar interviewed Donia for Swedish Radio when she was still living in a refugee camp in Khan Younis. Today, she and her family managed to escape to Cairo.
