Why Gaza Strip humanitarian Crisis and not Gaza Strip humanitarian crisis? Why do you want to capitalize "Crisis"? The redirect Gaza humanitarian crisis implies that "(2023–present)" is unnecessary disambiguation. – wbm1058 (talk) 15:57, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
User:wbm1058 sorry for the typing mistake. Cactinites (talk) 16:47, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:wbm1058 as there is already a redirect I mentioned above. I think it's unnecessary to move the article at present maybe the article will be moved in the future. Cactinites (talk) 16:55, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"a complete blockade on the Gaza Strip"?[edit]

"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]

Hamas contribution to the crisis[edit]

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 :

declaration of UNRWA on the lack of cash to buy food whereas the aid is offered and then means to be free : https://twitter.com/UNRWA/status/1785258329788297730 / Aknowledgement by UNRWA that there supplies had been looted : https://www.timesofisrael.com/un-refugee-agency-says-hamas-stole-fuel-and-medications-from-its-gaza-premises/ Aboubidou72 (talk) 08:46, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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]
