STORYLINE: In light of the violence this May between Israel and Hamas, Gazans' life experiences underscore the unique emotional challenges they face living under constant occupation and frequent conflict. A study released this summer says 9 out of 10 children in Gaza suffer from some form of conflict-related trauma. The 11 days of intense fighting in May killed at least 250 Palestinians, 66 of whom were children, and injured about 1,900; destroyed schools, media offices, and medical facilities; and displaced upwards of 72,000 children. As a result of the uptick in violence in May, 91% of Gazan children now suffer from some form of conflict-related trauma, according to a new report from the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor, a Geneva-based independent, nonprofit organization that the Israeli government outlawed in 2016. The study, which surveyed 530 children across Gaza to observe behavior changes after the May siege, found that prior to the attack, about 33% of children in Gaza needed mental health support as a result of conflict-induced trauma. The lack of an integrated health care system in Gaza is another challenge for accessing mental health treatment, a substantial barrier considering the high percentage of children and adults requiring treatment for conflict-related trauma. Even before the most recent attacks in May, 51% of children and 31% of adults visiting Gaza Community Mental Health Program centers were diagnosed with PTSD following the 2014 escalation. The Gaza Strip has been cut off from the rest of the world for about 14 years now, since Israel imposed a travel ban on all individuals residing within Gaza in 2007. Exceptions are granted on a case-by-case basis, but the travel ban prevents people in Gaza from studying abroad, accessing economic opportunities, receiving certain medical services or simply visiting family and vacationing beyond Gaza in many instances.
