Gaza – The U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees says new Israeli restrictions on Gaza will worsen living conditions there.

Agency spokesman Chris Gunness said Thursday it could have “profound and far-reaching consequences for already desperate civilians.”
Gaza is home to nearly 2 million people, 80 percent of whom rely on humanitarian aid.
Israel this week shut the only cargo crossing with Gaza in response to incendiary kites and balloons sent across the frontier into Israel. It is still allowing food, medicine and humanitarian aid in through the crossing.
The kites are part of a campaign led by Gaza’s militant Hamas rulers against a crippling blockade Israel and Egypt imposed when the Islamic militant group seized control of the territory in 2007.
No apologies. Hamas is doing it to themselves.
How about Egypt they have an opening there, or their fellow man is not as cooperative as Israel is. It is sad you love the ones who avoid you, but Israel who really wants to help, you hate.
Yeah because having a terrorist organization run an area of land and it’s population is so great. But it’s the Jews fault
Not as much has the UN worsens conditions there
BOO-HOO…..
They have only themselves and their enablers at the UN to blame.
I am glad that things are worsening in Gaza, their fiery kites are worsening things here too but the UN does not seem to complain much about that…..
Cause and effect – send fire kites, loose economic opportunities. Stop sending fire kites, there will be open shipment of good and economic opportunities. Even a child eventually understands this.
Let ’em go fly a kite!
The UN never uttered a word about the horrific things that Hamas does to Israel. Not the tunnels, not the terror, not the border breaching, not the fire setting. Until they do so, I ignore what the UN says.
