Palestinian man Walid al-Hattab distributes soup to poor locals in the Islamic holy month of Ramadan in Gaza City, on May 20, 2019. For the third year in a row, Walid al-Hattab, who cooks Palestinian soup called "Garisha," is trying to spread the Palestinian tekiya, a tradition cooking for poor people for free, in the Gaza Strip. Al-Hattab cooks the soup in the street where he is based in and invites people to get their food freely. "Tekiya is a Palestinian tradition. We grew up and saw our parents following this habit throughout the past years, especially when the Palestinian people faced tough conditions," al-Hattab told Xinhua. (Xinhua/Stringer)
