A Palestinian writer contributed to a book about Gaza that was published in Spain, yet has been unable to obtain a copy due to the Israeli blockade, We Are Not Numbers reported. The author remains unable to physically access the work despite its successful publication abroad, a consequence of restrictions on movement and commerce that limit Palestinians' ability to receive materials crossing in and out of the territory.
The book, titled "El Libro de Gaza," represents a rare instance of Palestinian voices reaching international audiences through foreign publication channels. The author has not yet touched a copy of their own contribution.
