A report from the United Nations in 2012 talked about how bad things were getting in Gaza. They said the area was becoming unlivable for its 1.8 million people. The report warned that if the blockade on Gaza didn’t stop there would be a major humanitarian crisis. It wasn’t just a guess it was a serious warning that something needed to be done quickly.
Things have actually gotten worse since that report. The blockade on Gaza has made it really hard for people to move around and for goods to come in. This has hurt the economy and made it harder for people to get basic things they need. The report tried to show how these restrictions were going to cause a lot of problems and make the area unlivable.
The fact that not much has changed since the 2012 report shows how tough it is to help Gaza. The report suggested that the world hasn’t done enough to help and fix the issues that are causing the crisis. It pointed out the economic and social damage the blockade has caused saying that the terrible conditions are a direct result of the blockade and the fact that the world didn’t take action when they were warned about it.
