Israel continues to block the exit of goods from Gaza. Cancer patients come out first since May 11 – Occupied Palestinian Territory

 


The Gaza Ministry of Agriculture bans the sale of Israeli products in Gaza in protest of the ongoing blanket ban on goods leaving the Belt. Restrictions imposed by Israel on Erez prohibit postal delivery to Gaza. Marine harassment of fishermen is on the rise.

Israel continues to impose severe entry restrictions on Gaza crossings. Last week, only food, animal feed, humanitarian aid, medicine and fuel for international organizations were allowed to enter the Belt through the Kerem Shalom Pass. Israel’s ban on fuel entering the Gaza power plant and all goods leaving Gaza is still in force.

Ministry of Agriculture in Gaza announced today that would ban the sale of Israeli products in Gaza in protest of Israel’s continued ban on goods leaving Gaza to be sold outside the Belt. The ban has exacerbated the damage to those working in agriculture and fishing and has flooded the local market with surplus produce and fish that cannot be sold for profit in the West Bank and Israel. Farmers and suppliers are forced to sell at a loss, or destroy their crops. For figures on the damage to the agricultural and fisheries sectors in Gaza since 11 May, look here.

According to information received from Gisha, today (June 3) was the first time since Israel closed the Erez and Kerem Shalom crossings on May 11 that cancer patients were allowed to travel through Erez Crossing to enter life-saving treatment that is not available in Gaza. Gisha and other organizations have repeatedly (Hebrew) warning that this policy is extremely unreasonable and endangers life. According to reports, a throat cancer patient from Gaza died last week after his request to travel through Erez Crossing for treatment at Al-Makassed Hospital in East Jerusalem was ignored by Israel.

Draconian restrictions imposed by Israel on Erez have also banned mailing to and from Gaza. Among those affected by the restriction are people waiting to receive their passports from foreign embassies in Israel, without which they cannot file for travel permits even in humanitarian circumstances. This week Gisha sent one paper(Hebrew) to the Minister of Defense of Israel, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territory (COGAT) and the Communications and Post Office Officer, requesting that they lift the restriction on postal delivery given the grave violation of the fundamental rights of residents of Gaza for property and dignity and the violation of their livelihood and family life.

Israel also continues to restrict its fishing area in the Gaza Strip to a distance of up to six nautical miles offshore. Fishing unions in Gaza have reported incidents of violent maritime harassment, including the use of live ammunition, against fishermen even within this restricted area. In one urgent letter (Hebrew) Gisha sent the Minister of Defense, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territory and the General Military Advocate, together with Adalah and Al Mezan, we demanded that all restrictions in the Gaza fishery area be lifted immediately and maritime harassment of fishermen.
