Commercial goods are no longer entering Gaza, raising fears of worsening shortages in the territory
Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported5m ago
Commercial goods have stopped entering the Gaza Strip for two days, according to Israeli authorities and reports, raising significant fears of worsening shortages in the territory. The disruption halts the supply chain where merchants in Gaza coordinate directly with external vendors, and shipments undergo examination by the Israeli military prior to entry.
Conflicting accounts surround the cause of the stoppage. While Israeli authorities stated on Thursday that the decision to halt commercial entry came from Palestinian merchants, local importers have disputed this claim.
