Deadly Incursion in Gaza Continues

October 2004

Last Tuesday, following a three-week withdrawal from Gaza, Israeli forces invaded the northern section of the Gaza Strip. The ensuing week has been one of the deadliest periods in Gaza in years. (For an overview of the last four years of intifada–1,008 Israelis and 3,334 Palestinians dead– read Dr. Mustafa Barghouthi’s analysis on Electronic Intifada.)

Our partners in Gaza are doing their best to do their work and live their lives, but they are struggling. In addition to the 66 Palestinian deaths (including 19 children), there has been extensive damage to infrastructure, including the total destruction of water, power and sewage systems for more than 100,000 refugees.

Here is the latest news from our partners:
