Workers' Union Reports Unemployment and Job Denial
The General Union of Palestinian Workers reported that the number of unemployed workers has reached approximately 507,000. Over 280,000 workers from the 1948 occupied Palestinian territories have lost their livelihoods since the Israeli aggression against Gaza in October 2023. It was emphasized that the difficult economic and social conditions—caused by the destruction of the Palestinian economy and a decline in job opportunities—have led to rising rates of unemployment and poverty, with insufficient social protection. The union called for urgent financial support for affected families and international intervention to protect the rights of Palestinian workers, stressing that decent work is unavailable under the current high levels of unemployment, poverty, and ongoing restrictions on access to workplaces.
