For two years during the genocide war on Gaza, Israel not only killed civilians and destroyed homes but also launched a systematic campaign against Palestinian heritage, during which it looted about 20,000 rare artifacts from the 'Pasha's Palace' before destroying it.
As the rubble accumulates over the memory of the place, technicians and workers are working amidst the debris in an attempt to save what remains of the palace, using simple tools to search for scattered artifacts within it and conducting treatments to preserve what is left of Gaza's historical identity.
Hamouda Al-Dahdar, a cultural heritage expert, stated that the palace is one of the most prominent historical landmarks in Gaza, explaining that it dates back to the Mamluk era and is estimated to be around eight centuries old.
Its disappearance after the Israeli occupation army took control of the site confirms that it has been subjected to theft and smuggling.
