Tunnel Tension!



Between Gaza and Egypt, there had been many layers of tunnels, used to smuggle goods into Gaza. Egypt is now placing metal plates on its boarder, stopping this smuggling. This is creating even more hardship withing Gaza, shop keepers and other citizens are already struggling to sell, and buy goods. In some areas, most of the food in shops, comes from the tunnels, this will leave them with nothing when the tunnels are shut down. While smuggling is not the best course of action, they are boxed in and desperate with one of their last sources of imports being rapidly cut off.
