The Kerem Shalom crossing, located east of the Rafah crossing between Egypt and Gaza, witnessed a large number of workers returning. This area\u200d has been heavily targeted by\u200c Israeli airstrikes and tanks since\u2064 the terrorist attack on southwestern Israel\u200b by Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>The decision \u2064by Israel follows reports\u200c that\u200d Gazan civilians, including \u200bthose with\u2062 work permits in \u200cIsrael,\u2064 were involved in Hamas&#8217;s recent attacks on Israelis. This move has left many workers feeling humiliated and betrayed.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, Israel had issued over 18,000 permits allowing Gazans to work in \u2063sectors \u2063like agriculture and construction in Israel and the occupied West Bank. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/israel-sends-thousands-of-cross-border-palestinian-workers-back-to-gaza\/\" title=\"Israel sends back thousands of Palestinian workers to Gaza.\">jobs offered significantly higher salaries compared<\/a> to what workers could earn in the blockaded Gaza Strip. However, Israel has now abandoned this system and shifted its focus to\u2064 eradicating the \u2062militant Hamas movement that controls Gaza through a combined air and ground offensive.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu&#8217;s office stated, &#8220;Israel is\u200d severing all contact with Gaza. There will be no\u200d more Palestinian workers from\u2064 Gaza. Those workers from Gaza who were in Israel on the day of the outbreak of the war will be returned \u2063to \u2063Gaza.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The exact\u2063 number of Gaza residents in \u200cIsrael during the attack on October 7 remains unclear. However, it is estimated that around \u200d4,950 residents fled to the West Bank, while \u200capproximately 5,000 were detained by Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Ghazal Ghazal,\u200d who worked at a sweets factory in \u200dTel Aviv, managed to escape to the West Bank after hearing about the arrests conducted by Israeli authorities. \u2062She expressed her confusion, stating, &#8220;Nobody knows what&#8217;s going on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For those who remain in the West Bank, communication with\u200b their families in Gaza \u2063has been challenging due to limited internet and phone\u2064 connections. Nidal Abu Jidian, a father of three, shared his heartbreaking experience of being on the phone with \u200dhis uncle when he was killed in an airstrike. He\u2064 now relies on his \u200bphone to stay updated on his family&#8217;s condition.<\/p>\n<p>As the Israeli bombardment\u200b continues, Palestinians in the West Bank face uncertainty and limited access to news from their homeland.<\/p>\n<p>(Additional reporting by Henriette Chacar in Ramallah; editing by Jason Neely, Angus MacSwan, \u2063and Mark Heinrich)<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How has \u2062the Israeli blockade affected the economy\u200c and living conditions \u200dof Palestinians in Gaza?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Children, have \u200cbeen killed and injured in the\u2062 recent escalation of violence between \u200dIsrael and Hamas. Israel claims that it is taking this action in\u2062 order to ensure the safety\u2064 and security of its own \u2062citizens. However, critics argue that\u2063 this only adds to the \u2063suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, \u2062who are already\u2062 living under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rep-michael-mccaul-say-hamas-is-face-of-evil-condemns-un-secretary-generals-comments-on-israel\/\" title=\"Rep. Michael McCaul condemns UN Secretary-General's comments on Israel, calls Hamas the 'face of evil'.\">dire conditions due<\/a> to the Israeli blockade and frequent military attacks.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that around 10,000\u200d Palestinians from Gaza were working in Israel before this recent crackdown. \u200dThese workers, who mostly work in construction, agriculture, and manufacturing sectors, were able to send \u2064money back to their families in Gaza and support the local economy. The sudden \u2064decision to send them back would not only affect their livelihoods, but also\u200c have serious economic consequences for Gaza, which is already experiencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/shapiro-debunking-the-15-minimum-wage\/\" title=\"SHAPIRO: Debunking The  Minimum Wage\">high unemployment<\/a>\u2064 rates and\u2064 limited access to basic resources.<\/p>\n<p>The reasoning behind this decision is rooted in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/julio-rivera-cyber-warfare-in-2022-espionage-hacking-for-profit-and-infrastructure-attacks\/\" title=\"Julio Rivera: Cyber Warfare 2022: Espionage and Hacking-for Profit.\">long-standing conflict<\/a> between Israel and Hamas. Hamas, which \u2062controls the Gaza Strip,\u2064 has been\u2063 launching rockets into Israeli territory, prompting Israeli airstrikes in response. The recent attack on southwestern Israel, \u2064which Hamas claimed responsibility\u2063 for, resulted \u2063in the deaths of several Israelis. This has\u200d further strained \u2064the relationship between Israel and Gaza.<\/p>\n<p>Israel argues that by sending Palestinian workers back to Gaza, it is weakening Hamas&#8217;s ability to carry out\u200c future attacks. However, this approach fails to acknowledge \u2063the underlying issues that have led to the\u2064 current situation. The Israeli blockade, which restricts the flow of goods and people in\u200d and out of Gaza,\u200d has had a devastating impact on the\u2064 economy and living conditions of Palestinians. It has also contributed to the rise \u2062of extremist \u200cgroups like Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>Instead\u2062 of punishing innocent \u200dcivilians\u200c by sending them back to a territory already suffering from high unemployment \u2062and poverty, Israel should consider finding a peaceful and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sexual-consent-app-idea-draws-criticism-in-australia\/\" title=\"Sexual Consent App Idea Draws Criticism In Australia\">long-term solution<\/a> to the conflict. This involves engaging in meaningful dialogue with Palestinian authorities, lifting the blockade on Gaza, and addressing the root \u2063causes of\u200c the conflict. Only through a comprehensive and inclusive approach can lasting peace and \u2063stability be achieved.<\/p>\n<p>The international community must also play a role in advocating \u2063for the rights and\u200d well-being of Palestinians. It is crucial for world leaders to condemn the \u2063use of violence by all parties and press for a negotiated settlement that respects the rights of both Israelis and \u200cPalestinians. Economic and\u2063 humanitarian\u2064 assistance\u200b should also be provided to alleviate the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, who have endured decades of conflict and hardship.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Israel&#8217;s \u200cdecision \u200dto send thousands\u2063 of Palestinians back to \u2062Gaza is a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict and suffering in the region. This approach fails to address the root causes of the conflict and only adds to the hardship faced by Palestinians in Gaza. It is crucial\u200c for Israel to reconsider its actions and work towards a peaceful resolution that upholds\u2063 the rights and well-being of all parties involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israel expelled thousands of Palestinians to Gaza, intensifying its crackdown on workers with permits to work in Israel.
