Gaza Life in Photos, Strawberry harvest begins

Veteran Gaza photographer and war correspondent Mohammed Asad offers an array of photographs that present the daily life of the people of Gaza Strip. The Palestinians in Gaza live under a brutal and oppressive economic embargo imposed by Israel and are constantly under attack from Israeli terrorists and military violence.

Strawberry season in full swing in the Gaza Strip

Gaza War Photographer Mohammed Asad

It is expected to export 300 tons of strawberries to European markets and the West Bank, unlike the previous season, which has been exporting 65 tons in it.”

And allow the Israeli occupation authorities to export limited varieties of agricultural products to the European markets, and the markets of the West Bank and Israel.

Referred to the crop cultivated strawberries spaces in the Gaza Strip, it is shrinking by the day due to the Israeli aggression and frequent land leveling, as well as the successive crises that beset the agricultural sector.

Cultivated land area shrunk strawberries than 2,500 acres in 2007 to 600 acres only, for the time being, estimated production of about 1,500 tons.
