‘Catastrophic’ conditions in Gaza under Israeli blockade

Season 2025 Episode 131 | 4m 23s

The Israeli blockage of Gaza is now in its third month. Since early March, no food, water, shelter or medication has been allowed into the embattled territory and aid groups warn of a worsening humanitarian crisis. Laura Barrón-López speaks with Ghada Alhaddad, who works for Oxfam inside Gaza, about the latest conditions on the ground.
