Palestinians in Gaza lose their livelihoods

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) continues its tight siege and prevents movement of people and goods in and out of the Gaza Strip. This includes patients who are close to dying due to denied access to hospitals abroad. Sources from the Palestinian Ministry of Health have indicated that more than 100 patients have died since mid-June 2007. On top of this, the imposed siege has caused the economy to collapse, thereby robbing tens of thousands of Palestinians from their livelihoods.
