Bulk humanitarian food aid is for sale or distribution, near or in front of UNRWA headquarters.

 

But man cannot live by bread alone. He needs somewhere to store it . . . .
 
Nyo!  OK: . This photo is the giveaway answer. So, yes, here we are, in
Gaza, Hamas occupied Gaza Strip,
Between a rock and a hard place, and the deep blue sea . . . ARE SWIMMING POOLS!

A larger family residence,,,

 
or COZY COUPLE or  family unit,

or , one of the in-City, community pools.

WRITE IN:  Israel and Jordan established water sharing in the Peace Treaty of 1994 and between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the Oslo Accords.
More BONUS QUESTIONS:
How much fresh water did Israel  commit to give the people in Gaza & the West Bank ?
Did the amount allocated change with the extended drought?
No. So, While Israel is fining people who water their gardens or those who  use a hose not a bucket
to wash their cars.....Gaza, the desert gem is emerald green with its peace water. & that negotiator went back to school to study ecology!

AT the same time:
$2 billion was pledged to the PA internationally:  50 percent came from Europe, 25 percent from the United States, 10 percent from Japan, and  5 percent ($125 million) from the Arab world (basically Saudi Arabia and the UAE).  It is estimated that Hamas gets as much from the radical Islamic groups throughout the world.


so, if not by the sea, or the poolside, then how about a drive over the one of Gaza's expansive malls

just for perspective:

CAN YOU FIND Israel on this map of the Middle East in geographic context?
 CAN YOU FIND  Gaza?    Hint: it is on the Mediterranean Sea, facing west (we've seen the beaches, hotels,malls, schools, and some of the homes, markets,....)

What do you see?  Have you found Gaza?  Look back at the original map above for a hint.....

Now, let us blow up (so to speak) this image, that is focus in onto the Gaza Strip, and see it from the perspective of the UNRWA -- the United Nations Relief and Welfare Agency, whose work is with Gaza and the West Bank , solely.
Not with the millions of refugees fleeing from and out of Africa, some thousands actually walking from Sudan (and elsewhere)  fleeing through  Egypt, the Sinai and  avoiding Gaza for Israel proper?
Any thoughts?
