Submitted by [email protected] on Sat, 10/13/2012 - 13:36

Newly updated: The ongoing Gaza blockade (through the land, air and sea) is a denial of basic human rights in contravention of international law and amounts to collective punishment.It severely restricts imports and exports, the movement of people in and out of Gaza, and access to agricultural land and fishing waters. Gazans are unable to provide for their families and the quality of infrastructure and vital services has deteriorated.
