Storyline


The livelihoods of locals living in the Gaza Strip has become even harder as Israel continues its large-scale airstrikes.

By the end of Sunday, airstrikes conducted by Israeli military forces have lasted for seven days.

The airstrikes have seriously damaged Gaza's electricity facilities, water supply network and communication system. Local residents are now facing a difficult situation with not enough power and water.

"Because of the airstrikes conducted by Israel in our region, all the municipal services are interrupted. Electricity, water, network and telecommunications are cut off. I have no idea when these essential municipal services will be restored. We have to undergo all these difficulties. It really sucks," said Khalil, a Gaza resident.

Some locals regarded the struggle they are going through as a tragedy of humanitarianism.

"Palestine have been suffering from such destruction for 15 years. But now the situation is getting even worse. This conflict has aggravated the suffering of the Palestinian people. We also haven't found any solutions. This is literally a tragedy of humanitarianism," said Imad, another Gaza resident.

As main roads were damaged by the airstrikes, rescuers cannot rush to the rescue sites in a short period of time.

Currently, the local municipality is now trying to repair infrastructure as quickly as possible.

"We are now organizing an emergency committee. Led by the local municipality with the participation of various departments, the committee will follow up on the progress of infrastructure restoration as well as livelihood services constantly," said Yahya Al-Sarraj, president of the Union of Municipalities in Gaza.
