Original Note:
The U.S. Department of State, UN, EU, ICC, and others do not agree that Israel ever freed Gaza, arguing that its blockade means it has effectively occupied it since 1967: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/menasource/gaza-israel-occupied-international-law/ https://www.state.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Israel.pdf Israel also controls the Gaza-Egypt border, using it to impose "choking" restrictions on the region: https://www.gisha.org/UserFiles/File/Report%20for%20the%20website.pdf
