Context
About 90 percent of the population of the Gaza Strip has been displaced at least once since the war between Israel and Hamas began, according to the UN humanitarian agency. This situation has generated an unprecedented humanitarian crisis in the region.
Alarming ciphers
According to the UN agency OCHA, around 1.9 million people are believed to be displaced in Gaza. This means that nine out of ten people in the Gaza Strip have been internally displaced at least once, if not up to ten times, since October. These figures are alarming and reflect the devastating impact of the conflict on the lives of the civilian population.
Repeated displacements
Israel’s military operations have forced the people of Gaza to restart their lives again and again. The operations in Rafah and in the north of the territory have generated additional displacements, further dividing the Gaza Strip and limiting the freedom of movement of the population.
emotional impact
Behind these numbers are people with fears, complaints and broken dreams. The war has left a trail of pain and hopelessness in the lives of the people of Gaza. People have been moved from one side to the other like pawns in a board game, unable to build a stable future for themselves and their families.
humanitarian crisis
The situation in Gaza is an urgent humanitarian crisis that requires the attention and action of the international community. It is necessary to guarantee protection and support to the displaced population, as well as seek peaceful solutions to this conflict that has caused so much suffering.
