The humanitarian context of the oPt is unique amongst today\u2019s crises and remains directly tied to the impact of the occupation, which marked its 50th year in June 2017. A protracted protection crisis continues. At least 1.9 million Palestinians experience, or are at risk of, conflict and violence, displacement and denial of access to livelihoods, among other threats. The most vulnerable Palestinians are currently denied or restricted in their access to essential services such as water and health care. A recurrent cycle of shocks, natural and manmade, has eroded the resilience of vulnerable households to cope with the prolonged nature of the humanitarian crisis.<\/p>\n

These dynamics are significantly magnified in the Gaza context by the protracted blockade, imposed by Israel citing\u00a0security concerns after the takeover of Gaza by Hamas in 2007, three major escalations of hostilities in less than ten\u00a0years and the intensification of the internal divide between the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority (PA) and the defacto Hamas authorities during the course of 2017. Combined, these factors have devastated public infrastructure,\u00a0disrupted the delivery of basic services and undermined already vulnerable living conditions. Across the oPt, one in\u00a0two Palestinians, or roughly two and a half million people, will need some form of humanitarian assistance in 2018.<\/div>\n
