Gaza Tunnels

The border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt is connected through some tunnels. Through these tunnels equipment, food, medicines, and helping people enter Gaza to try to help this people who are fighting for their lifes. The Gaza government is not incharge of these tunnels, Egypt is the country running these tunnels out.

The Egyptian government has decided the enclosure of this tunnels. Many people are being affected by this decision. Through the Gaza tunnel, life in this country was somehow better in their often misery. People worked in the entrance of the tunnel by recieving what was sent and earned a fairly good salary. Now that the tunnels are being shut down the Gaza residents are concerned about how are they going to be able to find the medicines they need.

Egypt's decision on closing the tunnels I belive is very unfair. The Gaza community needs the tunnels to survive, to have a better life. Egypt is wrong if they believe that closing the tunnels will help. The tunnels should not be shut down.
