The Israeli government has been forced to release documents outlining its policies for determining restrictions on basic goods into the Gaza Strip. The documents outline a formula for what’s described as “breathing space” — the number of days before a given supply completely runs out in Gaza. It also speaks of a “deliberate reduction” of a number of goods and includes the “sensitivities of the international community” as a factor in whether the flow of goods should be increased. The Israeli human rights group Gisha won the disclosure after the Israeli government long denied the documents’ existence.
