How Palestinians Survive in Gaza Strip

Subscribe
The population of the Gaza Strip is witnessing a breakdown in civil order amid the ongoing escalation of Palestine-Israel crisis. This has led to a surge of residents raiding UN food warehouses in sheer desperation to secure food and water.
After three weeks of near-absolute restrictions levied by Israel, Gaza's essential services are on the brink of collapse. The region is grappling with potential health crises as sewage floods its streets, and the dwindling supplies of food, water, and medicine exacerbate concerns.
Against the backdrop of persistent artillery and air strikes, Israeli soldiers are making their way into the strip's northern regions, such as Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has characterized this operation as the second phase of the ongoing conflict initiated by Hamas.
