The Popular Committee Against the Siege has warned of an Israeli plan to take further steps to strangle the Gaza Strip economically.
In press remarks on Tuesday head of the committee Jamal al-Khudari said that Israel’s new strangulation plan is aimed at causing the worsening economic situation in Gaza to collapse completely.
Khudari described the economic situation in Gaza as “already in the recovery room” affirming that Gaza has been suffering from considerable economic pressures and tight blockade for over 11 years.
He pointed out that more than 80 percent of Gaza factories workshops and businesses had been shut down either partially or completely rendering tens of thousands of citizens with no jobs.
