History

Historical Context

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has deep roots, stemming from a blockade initiated by Israel in 2005. This blockade intensified during the ongoing conflict, severely restricting aid and leading to widespread starvation. Historical parallels exist with the 1948 Nakba, when many Palestinians were displaced, and the 2014 Gaza war, which also resulted in significant humanitarian suffering, highlighting the cyclical nature of violence and aid crises in the region.
