holding, after three days of
violence in which at least 44
people have died.
It's the most serious flare-up
since an 11-day conflict in
May 2021.
The ceasefire was mediated by
Egypt which has acted as an
inter intermediary between
Israel and Gaza in the past.
The latest violence began with
Israeli attacks on sites in the
Gaza Strip, which its military
said was in response to
threats from a militant group
called Palestinian Islamic Jihad
(PIJ).
Effects to the Tourism
and Hospitality Industry
It was supposed to be a
record-breaking year for
tourist visits to Israel. But all
that changed when the 50-
day war between Israel and
Hamas prompted jittery
travelers to cancel trips en
masse, leaving empty hotel
rooms and barren tourist
sites in their wake. The
summertime fighting
delivered a serious hit to
Israel’s thriving tourism
industry, causing losses of
hundreds of millions of
dollars and sparking concern
that aftershocks may
continue well after the war.
Learning Experience of the
Country/Continent
This long-standing conflict naturally begs
the question: why should we Filipinos
care about the conflict between two
countries so far away from us, whose
day-to-day concerns are so far removed
from ours? We have nothing at stake in
this matter, so we should just mind our
own business, right? On May 2020, Israel
sold the PNP one billion pesos’ worth of
military equipment. So no, we do have a
stake in these affairs, and the Israeli
government’s actions have implications
for us. I’d be happy to leave the Israelis
alone if that weren’t the case life’s short
enough, after all, and the conflict is so
undeniably messy but the fact is that our
tax money is being used to procure their
weapons for use by the police whose
worker's salaries are used to pay.

May 10, Human- The dispute is over a specific
2021 Caused area of land that Palestinians
and Israelis both claim.
It was marked by protests and
police riot control, rocket
attacks on Israel by Hamas and
Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ),
and Israeli airstrikes in the
Gaza Strip. The crisis was
triggered on 6 May, when
Palestinians in East Jerusalem
began protesting over an
anticipated decision of the
Supreme Court of Israel on the
eviction of six Palestinian
families in the neighborhood of
Sheikh Jarrah.
Effects to the Tourism and
Hospitality Industry
The violence coincided with Qadr
Night (8 May), observed by
Muslims, and Jerusalem Day (9–
10 May), an Israeli national
holiday. The confrontations
occurred ahead of a planned
Jerusalem Day parade known as
the Dance of Flags by far-right
Jewish nationalists, which was
later canceled. More than 600
people were injured, mostly
Palestinians, drawing
international condemnation.
Israel's Supreme Court ruling on
evictions from Sheikh Jarrah was
then delayed for 30 days as
Avichai Mandelblit, the erstwhile
attorney general of Israel, sought
to reduce tensions.
Learning Experience of the
Country/Continent
Aside from their claims to the
land back a couple thousand
years, It is also over time for
political and demographic reasons
where the current political conflict
began in the early 20th century.
The primary approach to solving
the conflict today is a so-called
“two-state solution” that would
establish Palestine as an
independent state in Gaza and
most of the West Bank, leaving
the rest of the land to Israel.
Though the two-state plan is clear
in theory, the two sides are still
deeply divided over how to make
it work in practice.
