Gaza Strip
• Israel has launched four protracted military assaults on Gaza: in 2008,
2012, 2014 and 2021. Thousands of Palestinians have been killed,
including many children, and tens of thousands of homes, schools and
office buildings have been destroyed.
• Rebuilding has been next to impossible because the siege prevents
construction materials, such as steel and cement, from reaching Gaza.
• The 2008 assault involved the use of internationally banned weaponry,
such as phosphorus gas.
• In 2014, over a span of 50 days, Israel killed more than 2,100
Palestinians, including 1,462 civilians and close to 500 children.
• During the assault, called Operation Protective Edge by the Israelis,
about 11,000 Palestinians were wounded, 20,000 homes were destroyed
and half a million people displaced .
