Part of composite article Three Years On: 73,000 Dead, 82% of Gaza in Ruins, and Israel's Economy Is Booming View full article →
Three years have passed since the genocide in Gaza began. Yet the extermination continues.
More than 73,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli bombs. About 170,000 are wounded. Over 10,000 are missing.
A ceasefire agreed one year ago has not stopped the destruction. Eighty-two percent of Gaza's infrastructure — roads, schools, homes, hospitals — now lies in ruins.
The crisis has faded from international headlines. But for Palestinians, it has not faded from daily life.
This story was told through the voices of those living it. Ghaydaa Al-Abadsa, a Gaza-born writer and translator, authored *Cautivos*, a book about the thousands of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. War reporter Mónica García Prieto has just published *El matadero. Gaza o la insoportable minuciosidad del mal*, which covers three years of uninterrupted killing.
Inès Abdel-Razek, a political analyst and co-director of the Palestinian Institute for Public Diplomacy in Ramallah, described the extreme situation in the West Bank. There, occupation and apartheid have accelerated at an unprecedented pace.
Taher Ali, a Palestinian activist with the Palestinian Ateneo in Spain, and Jaume Asens, a European Parliament member from Comuns who recently published *Gaza después de Auschwitz*, discussed boycott efforts, shifting global perceptions, and resistance during a genocide.
