Long before the current war, Hamas destroyed all economic and social hopes in the Gaza Strip.
By Bernd Ziesemer
Many Palestinians like to refer to the Gaza Strip as an “open-air prison.” Even before the war, the United Nations spoke of a “social and humanitarian catastrophe” in the area. And Deutsche Welle called it a “place of complete hopelessness” back in 2018. It wasn’t just the Israeli attacks after the brutal murders of Hamas that turned the Gaza Strip into a courtyard of hell.
But has there really never been hope for the two million people on the shores of the Mediterranean?
