Child marriages surge in Gaza as war tightens grip on girls’ futures [EN/AR] - occupied Palestinian territory | ReliefWeb https://share.google/0yJzR5eCbs10f0p02
This is from your article. It's not necessarily custom. It's survival. The collapse of their resources were directly related to Israel's control over Gaza. When Israel leveled Gaza, it made survival almost impossible. This was one way to keep their children from becoming a victim of child trafficking.  Imagine living in a region where this was the only option to survive and be safe. That is what Israel did to them. 
Reports of child marriages are rising across Gaza as displacement, poverty and the collapse of social, legal, health and protection systems fuel insecurity and force families into impossible choices. For many, marrying a daughter off can be seen as a way to cope financially, or to protect girls from the sexual abuse and coercion that are all too common in crisis settings.

Safa* fled from one shelter to another after her family’s home in North Gaza was bombed. “There was no privacy, no food and no safety,” she told UNFPA at a safe space. “My pregnant mother grew weaker every day, and I was also sick from malnutrition. I agreed to marry at 15 because he had a house, and I thought it would mean safety and stability.”
