dc.description.abstract |
On May 20, 2021, after 11 days of the
worst conflict since 2014, Israel and militants in Gaza
agreed to a cessation of hostilities. Casualties were
recorded on both sides, including more than 260 dead in
Gaza according to the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the
Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR),
along with considerable destruction of residential and
commercial buildings. While in Israel, 9 Israelis and 3
foreign workers were killed according to the Israeli
Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In Gaza, the conflict damaged
various core physical and digital infrastructure assets,
particularly buildings, hospitals and health centers, water
and sanitation facilities, and transport, energy and
communications networks. Exacerbated by previous trauma,
this renewed round of violence having a particularly serious
impact on children’s mental health as they are more
susceptible to the effects of high levels of stress. Beyond
the human tragedy and the subsequent immediate humanitarian
relief that was channeled to Gaza, the economic impact of
these 11 days of conflict has severely weakened an economy
already reduced to a fraction of its potential. Gaza is one
of the most densely populated areas in the world, with
around 2.1 million individuals living in a total area of 365
square kilometers. For nearly 15 years, the movement of
people and goods into and out of Gaza has been under
restrictions imposed by the Government of Israel (GoI) due
to security concerns. This isolation, in addition to
multiple episodes of conflict and a damaging internal
political divide, has created a severe humanitarian
situation in Gaza that was exacerbated by the recent hostilities.
