Gaza's ceasefire had some momentum. Now, some fear a new war will distract the world
Palestinians in Gaza are reacting to a possible shift in the world's attention from the Israel-Hamas ceasefire to a new regional conflict with Iran. Israel closed all crossings into the territory of over 2 million people in the wake of its new strikes on Tehran. It's not clear how long they will be closed. Palestinians fear new lack of access to food and other basic necessities from the outside world. Memories of hunger during last year's Israeli blockade remain fresh. The latest conflict comes days after President Donald Trump rallied billions of dollars in pledges for Gaza’s reconstruction.
