Gaza: Agencies (13/12/2007):The International Committee of the Red Cross is calling on Israel to lift restrictions in Gaza and the West Bank that it says are causing "enormous humanitarian cost."
The aid organization, which usually refrains from making political statements, said Palestinians have "effectively become a hostage" to the conflict.
Israel closed most crossing points into Gaza, following fighting between Palestinian factions in June. The region suffers from frequent electrical shortages, crumbling infrastructure, lack of medications and soaring food prices.
Israel has defended the closures and other security measures as necessary to prevent militant rocket attacks on Israeli settlements.
