Boxing For Women And Girls In Gaza

At Gaza’s first female boxing club, women and girls are fighting prejudice. In a region where boxing has traditionally been considered a man’s sport, the club is challenging gender stereotypes. It also provides a path for girls who want to pursue a career as a boxer, as well as a respite from life in the territory, which is surrounded by Israel and Egypt.

“I benefit a lot from boxing,” Farah Abu Al-Qomsan, a 15-year-old boxer at the club, told Reuters. “My ambition is to represent my Palestinian people and take part in world championships.”
