Recently, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development released a report on the influence of Israel’s aggressive moves on the economy of the Gaza Strip.

According to the report, the total volume of production in Gaza in the fourth quarter of last year diminished by 81 percent as compared to that in the third quarter.

In the period between October last year and early this year, 82 percent of enterprises were destroyed and 80 to 96 percent of irrigation facilities and other agricultural assets became unusable, thus making the area unable to produce food.

The report expressed concern that the economy of the Gaza Strip is on the brink of total collapse at present.
