Watch: Gaza football fans watch World Cup from rubble
Hundreds of football fans across parts of Gaza watched Tuesday's Argentina v Egypt World Cup game amongst the ruins of shattered buildings.
Many waved flags for Egypt, which shares a border with the war-torn enclave and has been one of the mediators in ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel.
The game ended 3-2 with Argentina advancing to the quarter-finals.
