Gaza is not a country. It’s a besieged reigon inside Israel. Gazans don’t have passports; they are not even allowed to travel out of their borders to even visit the west bank or any place in Israel except for few with job permits who were allowed work in fields inside Israel by day and return by night. Their fuel, electricity, food and water are rationed and controlled by Israel. They drink polluted water and live in poverty and 75%+ unemployment. They get bombed yearly. Israel juat killed more than 22000 in the last 3 months and crippled thrice as many.
It’s worse than an aprthied. It’s much worse than being in prison of any first world country. And the only reason they have Hamas in control is because of these conditions.
