 Remembering ‘Gush Katif’ 7 Years after Gaza Withdrawal
‘Gush Katif’ is the Hebrew name for the block of 21 Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip. In 2005, nearly 10,000 residents of Gush Katif were forced to evacuate their homes, as these areas were turned over to the Palestinians as part of the “Disengagement”. Unfortunately, this did not bring peace to Israel, instead it brought more terror and rocket attacks.
Ms. Laurence Beziz is the Project Coordinator of the Katif Center, commonly referred to as the “Gush Katif Museum”, in Nitzan, Israel. In July, United with Israel was privileged to deliver two kindergarten bomb shelters to the community and was able to visit this very special place.

On that date, an Air France Concorde supersonic plane caught fire, exploded, and crashed into a hotel, within minutes of takeoff.
All passengers and crew on the flight were killed, as were some employees of the hotel, for a death toll of 113.
