THE IMPACT OF ARMED CONFLICT ON WOMEN IN GAZA: LEGAL AND GAPS HUMANITARIAN CHALLENGES

Abstract

This study explores the profound impact of armed conflict on women in Gaza, focusing on the legal and humanitarian challenges they face. As one of the most vulnerable groups in conflict zones, women in Gaza endure a wide spectrum of hardships, including gender-based violence, displacement, exploitation, and the collapse of essential services such as healthcare and education. The protracted blockade, repeated military operations, and destruction of infrastructure have intensified their vulnerability and deepened existing gender inequalities. This research adopts an analytical-legal approach to examine the extent to which international legal frameworks particularly the Geneva Conventions, their Additional Protocols, and UN Security Council Resolution 1325 address the protection of women in armed conflict. Despite these legal commitments, implementation in Gaza remains inadequate due to political, logistical, and security constraints, with little accountability for violations. The study also evaluates the role of local women’s rights groups in responding to these challenges. It concludes that stronger international accountability, effective enforcement of legal obligations, and greater inclusion of women in peacebuilding and reconstruction efforts are essential. By highlighting the specific vulnerabilities of women in Gaza, this research aims to contribute to more comprehensive and gender-sensitive strategies in conflict and post-conflict settings.
