Gaza's Palestinians remain in the dark amid communications blackout

Palestinians in Gaza have little way of communicating with those in the outside world amidst an Israel-imposed communications blackout.

For days, those without international sim cards have had no internet or telecommunications services.

Palestinians say this is a deliberate move by Israel to prevent reports of war crimes from getting out to the world.

The📍#GazaStrip is experiencing the longest communications shutdown since the war began.

People are cut off from loved ones and the rest of the world, increasing the feeling of isolation.

It also impedes humanitarian response and restricts access to lifesaving information. pic.twitter.com/tiY3uwPxsr
