Occupied Palestinian Territories, Gaza, Gaza City, June 2013..A young fiancee goes wedding dress shopping in Gaza. Her future husband is working in Libya, where she hopes to join him. Since the Israeli siege, many Gazans say that girls are marrying younger as there are now fewer possibilities for both work and travel. Most young girls say they hope to find a husband who is based outside or will find work that will take them away from the confines of Gaza. (KEYSTONE/NOOR/Tanya Habjouqa / NOOR)
