UNPACKED: Watch – Who Owns the Gaza Strip?
Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has been at the heart of a brutal war between Israel and Hamas. But this tiny 25-mile strip’s troubled history started long before the current hostilities. After Israel captured Gaza during the 1967 Six-Day War, its fate took a turbulent turn, eventually falling under Hamas’ control. Now governed by Hamas, Gaza has witnessed immense suffering and resilience in the face of decades of conflict. Who will control Gaza next? It’s uncertain. But understanding the deep, historical roots of this conflict is crucial to solving it.
