"a complete blockade on the Gaza Strip"? It's impossible. Look at the map. About 1/6th of the Gaza strip border is not with Israel but with Egypt. The Gazan-Egyptian border is independent of Israel's military forces. Ehud Amir (talk) 08:18, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have fixed this. Originally Gallant had announced a “total blockade”, but he later reversed this decision.[1] Wafflefrites (talk) 16:22, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why not mention the looting of aid by Hamas, which is a proven fact and a major contributor to the humanitarian crisis? Here are some sources :

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a

"change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate — kashmīrī ^TALK 09:23, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply

Well, it cannot be a

"change X to Y" format since there is no part in this page which talks about Hamas contribution to humanitarian crisis whereas it has been decided to document Israeli contribution. There are a lot of sources which talk about Hamas looting the aid and it is a major factor of the famine. Aboubidou72 (talk) 15:26, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply

Yes, you can always post: "Add X after Y". And no, you're not allowed to engage in discussion here.

For the avoidance of doubt, all the reliable sources say that famine and starvation of 2.5 million people are the result only of Israel's policies. No misinterpreted tweets are going to change it. — kashmīrī ^TALK 19:42, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Aboubidou72 what do you mean that they are not allowed to engage in discussion on this talk page? I see no blocks or edit prohibitions on their account that would prohibit them from doing so SecretName101 (talk) 23:22, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
