POWERFUL VIDEO: The silent war -Israel’s blockade of Gaza February 18, 2010

MEDICAL AID PALESTINE  – 15 February 2010

Israel’s blockade of Gaza has been in place for almost three years.   Building on existing closures and restrictions, the blockade means the delay or denial of a broad range of items food, industrial, educational, medical deemed “non-essential” for a population largely unable to be self-sufficient at the end of decades of occupation. The blockade prevents access by sea, land and air, effectively closing off a population of 1.5 million Palestinians from the outside world.  This short film examines what the blockade means for the people of Gaza, as they struggle to rebuild their lives over a year after Operation Cast Lead.
