The Impact of Unemployment on Palestinian Workers in Israel

The recent conflict between Hamas and Israel has had far-reaching consequences on Palestinian workers in Israel, with many losing their jobs and facing financial hardships. Workers like Kamal Karaja and Bassam Karaja have struggled to make ends meet, leading to a sharp rise in unemployment rates in the Palestinian territories. The cancellation of work permits has left many families without sources of income, forcing them to turn to alternative means of earning money such as selling firewood. The situation has become dire, with some workers unable to pay for basic necessities like electricity and water. The Palestinian Authority has also been hit hard financially, making it challenging to provide aid to those in need. With no solution in sight, many workers are facing an uncertain future.
