Telecommunication services have been cut off in the Gaza Strip. The telecom provider Paltel said the bombardment caused “complete disruption” of internet, cellular and landline services, plunging Gaza’s 2.3 million people into further isolation as Israel continues its genocidal campaign.
Mirna El Helbawi, a writer, journalist and founder of Connecting Gaza, discusses the grassroots digital effort to counter the telecommunications blackout imposed on Gaza.
