WATCH: 70% of Palestinians living in Gaza are refugees due to Israeli policies of mass expulsion. As they face debilitating conditions under Israeli bombardment, occupation and siege, Israel denies them their internationally recognized right to return to their homes and land.
In the last three weeks, Israel has launched multiple military campaigns on the besieged strip, killing several Palestinians including a 23 year-old pregnant woman and her 18-month-old daughter. commondreams.org/news/2018/08/0…
Gaza is experiencing major power cuts, leaving families with as little as four hours of electricity a day. In July of this year, the occupied strip's only power station shut down, leaving Palestinians with no electricity for 18 hours. haaretz.com/middle-east-ne…
The majority of Gaza's 2 million residents are refugees. Many live within just miles of their now occupied homes and lands. “I dream of Hiribiya all the time, sometimes even while I am awake." 78-year-old Palestinian refugee from Gaza, Huda Deeb.
