This report is the latest from the world bank stating that the economy of gaza is on the verge of collapse and Unemployment Rates may be the highest in the world. Its true that what had been published by the International Bank about uh the Unemployment Rate in in gaza and also for the Palestinian Center, Palestinian Center for statics also, they published things like that, and we at unra or so we can assure that the Unemployment Rate reach to more than 40 this year, and we think that it is one of the highest rate in the world. The economical situation in gaza deteriorating and deteriorating after hours after hours. The world bank and International Institutions should provide all the required support to the residents of the ghaza strip until Economic Life is back to what it was before. I say frankly what we said before, if the Current Situation continues as it is, the situation is very complicated. It would entail a big explosion. As i said earlier, the Israeli Occupation and entire International Community with the United Nations at the. For decade now the gaza strip has been suffering from suffocating israeli bloccade and attacks against the palestinian. Economy that have destroyed factories and workshops in that employed tens of thousands of workers. One of the israelis told me they didnt want me to manufacture, they wanted me to trade, he told me that up front, they wanted me to import food and beverages from outside, they didnt want us to work, theyre trying to get me to spy for them, had to choose between being able to travel or working for them, told him i didnt want the factory or the life, and that i a bedoen who doesnt mind rearing goats when necessary, none would talk back to me, i would drink milk and feed myself, i told him to go away, as i wanted nothing, he told me that my brain is made of stone, i told him, it is even harder than stone, and i dont want to see his face ever again. Israel targeted our factory in 2014, destroying and burning it, the estimated losses were around we had a plan to introduce new production lines, but we had to shelve those plans and rechannel the money allocation to repairs. This is a structured and planned process by the Israeli Occupation and those who help it to destroy the gaza strip until it exists no more. In the most recent war that lasted 51 days, over 5,000 shops. And factories were destroyed, and i mean completely destroyed. Those the majority of factories in the gaza strip are destroyed after nearly two years, those factories are still unable to rebuild what had been destroyed by the occupation. These factories which lied throughout the gaza strip are now virtually closed. Thousands of labores who worked in the factories had to be let go and hundreds of traders. ترتب على هناك المئات من التجار تم اعلان. The remaining plans did not s survive second war mainly because they were prevented from importing Raw Materials for manufacturing and also because of the increase in the number of restrictions today we are suffering lack of everything, the least of which is that the glucose that goes into everything having to do with food materials is now banned, the stables are checked and denied access and they say. It might be used in welding, air compressors are also banned, air filters, electronics and many other items are banned, بالفعل ان المواد الخام منع دخولها الى قطاع غزه, materials from entering the gaza strip contributes to the destruction and devastation of entire industries there, how can we talk about industry while the Israeli Occupation prevents entry of Raw Materials to factories to start and maintain a manufacturing process. We therefore cannot even talk about industry in the ghaza strip. The most critical issue is that we also cannot talk about the economy of gaza as long as the imposed seach prevents entry and access of essential materials. Export is one of the most important pillars of sustainable development. The power and success of a country is measured by its imports and exports. Exports from gaza to the outside world. Are an essential element of its overall development. In addition, products made in gaza suited the tastes of consumers abroad. 2006. Since 2006, no products have been allowed out of gaza territory. We used to export 65 of our Production Capacity to places like the west bank, israel, the arab states and even europe. Machinery for export, we are qualified to export, yet not allowed to do so, so we work in gaza only, we have one way only, and that is israel exports to us, while were not allowed to reciprocate, we in gaza must get their special to export. برضاهم. Most workers in gazas factories are University Graduates qualified to travel and work abroad 2004. In 2004 i enrolled in engineering of Information Systems and Computer Data program at alcots open university. After graduation i found. The job a Textile Factory that worked on computer and programming systems. The gaza chamber of commerce corresponds with companies in germany and has provided the opportunity of working in modern tissue machines. However, the situation in gaza does not allow students to travel abroad because of the crossing conditions. Harsh Restrictions Mean no one can travel from gaza to germany. So, even though the opportunity made. Available to me and other gazza graduates from the programming section was a golden one, it came to dead end. We are enduring a siige and this affects students and graduates who work in factories doing jobs that are not related to their speciality just so that they can afford their daily needs. Some of them are married, we support families too, there is a large number of graduates not lucky enough to work in their chosen field and some students have actually set fire to their degrees or certificates because they didnt help them get out of the rank. Married with one child, a graduate of Nursing College in 2012 from alajar university. Ive been unemployed since my graduation year, my diploma hung on the wall for four years, it became just like any other picture frame, nothing special, i would think about burning it or throwing it away every time laid my eyes on it, or maybe give it to a f one day decided to burn it, i burned it and tossed it away because i was sick of looking at it, i dont know what to do now, i come here every day and look out at the sea, but i find nothing. Unemployed youth like me would attempt escape by crossing the sea, some drowned, some others went missing, but some have made it, المحاوله هذه حروح فيها يعني مش حاستنى الاخوان اللي وصلوا في السففن السابقه للتهريب. Reach another destination by smuggling abroad a ship, took some appealing photos. I think theres a hidden agenda to all this by the cia or israeli intelligence, the youth are broken. The first and foremost cause of immigration comes from the very depressing situation of the youth. Ibrahim is married and his three sons, while mahmoud is still single. I tried to get him marry. We approached several girls, but all his proposals were turned down. On september the 4th 2014, i was surprised to learn that abraham and. Attempted escape without my knowledge, they boarded a ship from alexandria to italy, but the ship sank five days later on the ninth. The ship had two floors, we know for sure that none of those were on the lower floor survived, those were up on the top deck survived in some of the people on the upper floor, we dont know what happened to my sons, last year has example, the number of people who left gaza outside the world is about 10,000 people only, means that in a 200 years there is a chance every gazan to leave gaza, where is that . Gaza, its a big person, no export, no jobs, no water, no electricity, no life, actually there is no tomorrow in gaza, the Mediterranean Sea lies at gazas door and should provide the most basic. Of life, however, israel blocked access to the territorial waters and that made gazas Construction Industry fail, the population is dependent on construction which contain the largest number of local workers, sometimes they are allowed the building material, they dont allow the Building Materials had been. Stopped for two months, actually in the last two months no Building Materials had been allowed into gaza for the mechanism of the un and dpa and the israel which benefiting from it you know nearly 10s of thousand people it means that you know another number huge number of Unemployed People when the occupiers blocked turn increased poverty, many of the poor are forced to live in inhumane conditions in khanus, in the southern part of gaza, احنا موجودين في بلد خانns, في منطقه لها بطن السمين. To the west of nas masjid. The situation in this neighborhood is very bad, everyones situation is dire. This is our house, as you can see, no rooms or toilet, the situation is very bad, there are other People Like Us living even in worse conditions, my house cannot be called a house, even animals cannot live in it, it is merely some walls with two middletons top where we sit, praise the lord, the situation is, as you can see, theres nothing, this is not a house, what can i show you, i cannot describe it. We live in it with no gas or electricity or water, theres nothing, not even a bed, praise the lord, we cant afford to complain, but praise the lord. Just some stuff such as dinner plates, as you can see, we cook our food on this wood fire. We came here. Government land, weve been here for eight years now, this is my house, i collected some stones and built it the way you see now, as you can see, theres no door, window or gas, i have a sick daughter, my youngest daughter experiences convulsions due to the shortage of water. We feel the tanker every 10 days. We dont have enough to wash the dishes or do the laundry. بقيت اشتغل قصر اخذ المقاولات البيت ب 20 مليون. I worked as a construction worker for a short period of time. I took contracts worth 500 or 250 or 150 depending on the condition of the house. 10 years ago i feel ill with some health problems. I had kidney stones that were weighing me down and i needed to expand or open the right kidney. I suffered from bone disease after that and ive been receiving treatment for the past year. I become very sick every now and then, all my joints are exhausted, theyre all run down. Ive been suffering from poor Blood Pressure in the last month or so. Ever since my husband got sick, he stopped working and earning living. Our neighbor came to get him a medical report. But we had no money, where can we go to get money . My husbands id card was torn apart and i had to borrow some money to get a new one issued. We havent got my daughters birth certificate yet, it needs around 50 jordanian dollars. I swear we couldnt afford to do it. The paperwork is in my purse, my daughter is 3 years old now and i still cant afford it. هذا بيتي هذا بيتي زينغو واطي زي ما انت شايف قديش المسافه من اللحسونيه this house of mine is made of tin as you can see, the distance between the tin and our heads emits heat, the walls are also made of tin, the heat inside reaches around 45, we cant bear it during summer or even winter. Also have scorpions and snakes around here, small snakes and scorpions, i took this young son of mine twice to the hospital because of scorpion bites, this is my kitchen, i start the wood fire here and i cook, no gas or gasoline cooker or anything like that, praise be to the lord, this is my kitchen, thats where my wife, لا في غاز ولا في بابور ولا في حاجه ما فيش الحمد لله رب العالمين هذا هو i cant do anything about my situation, we used to work in palestine in 48, but the israeli stopped this, they forced us to go to gaza to find work, but i have nothing to do here, my work came to an end in 2004, i came back to gaza and was never allowed out. With one room, toilet and a kitchen, the rest was agricultural land. I used to pay 100 a month for that. After i stopped working though, i cant afford Living Expenses at all. Have no money, so i came to this area in huanuis and built a house of ten as you can see. I think that the number that you talked about, more than 9000 palestine refugees, that they are divided in two categories, the object poor and the absolute war. I think that situation in gaza deteriorated to level that you know that you will find very soon that 80 of the population. Are depending a un humanitarian aid or humanitarian aid that is being provided not only by onra but also by other Un Organization or ngs or welfare societies we get two secs of wheed flour, several sardin cans and two bags of whole milk from the anuu every four months, thats all we get. Obviously. Unrwa plays a pivotal role providing aid to needy families that have grown dramatically in number. In 2000 as example, we only provided Food Distribution to 8000 palistinian refugees. Now we are reaching to 1 million because of the bloccade, because of the destruction of all the economical aspects, no export, and i think that this number will increase by days by. Weeks, by years, if the bloccade is not lifted. Poverty has become so serious in gaza, that some families have even considered marrying off their daughters in exchange for money, and at early age, some families presented their daughters ready for marriage, and thereby reduced their debts through our match. Unit run by the association that secures marriage opportunities for girls. There are cases that we have already accomplished through projects set up by the marriage project. There are some girls who even accepted handicapped or wounded man to be their life partner and الزوج. The fact that young men and women can. Not afford the cost of a wedding anymore has led to the phenomenon of Group Marriage facilitation, which at least gives young gosons a way of ending their bachelorhood, to marry and move into a marriage house, the association founded nearly 10 years ago with the aim of helping the youth who had the intention to get married by providing financial grants planning wedding ceremonies and helping them with basic Home Furnishing costs. This association established a Marriage Fund and opened the field of facilitated marriages which was met with dramatic and substantial appeal. Despite the suffering garsons endure, they try to delight themselves in the hope that a day will come when unemployment will be low, the illegal bloccade is lifted and the besegers are the losers. Eno enough is enough. And we will not remain solid at the ongoing slaughter of our brothers and sisters in gazzah now sees fire now please fire now gazzah gazzah gazzah no es una guerra es un genocidio um 14 38 uh nicht entfernen. الحال حالنا كحال المواطنين هنا نحن نبكي ولكن نبكي على الخذلان وليس على ما يفعل الاحتلال الاحتلال نعرف ان هذا هو ديدنه وهذا هو فعله منذ عقود من الزمن ولكن نبكي على خذلان من حولنا قبل قليل ام هنا اتت وصرخت صرخت امام كل عدسات الاعلام تسال اين العرب اعتقد هذا سؤال تجاوزناه منذ اليوم الاول ولكن لازال لدينا امل هنا لازال لدينا امل في الشعوب العربيه في الشعوب الاسلاميه ان تحرك الانظمه started two wars on gaza, it resulted in destroying the infrastructure and ruining most fields. Israel has been imposing a siege on this rif for more than seven years, in addition to blocking the crossings and preventing people from traveling. Palestinian women played a significant role in highlighting these issues in media. We as journalists are capable of delivering our message to the world through the culture and the. I havent faced any difficulties, i mean the Palestinian Society accepts the woman as part of it, so they even support us. For mind your right now, to breathe that you are strong to be here in this position.
