"Palestinians in Gaza are feeling the impact of regime change
next door." "At the height of the black market trade between Gaza and Egypt
there were thought to be more than 1,000 tunnels employing around 7,000 people –
providing Hamas with an income from taxes and permits of millions of dollars a
month, estimated at 40% of the government's revenue. But Egypt is thought to
have closed or destroyed around 80% of the tunnels."
