Direct attacks on telecommunications infrastructure by Israel, along with electricity blockades and fuel shortages, have led to the near-total collapse of Gaza's major cellular networks. This severely hinders the distribution of humanitarian aid.

Palestinians have attempted to bypass the communication blackout using eSIM technology [1, 2]. However, this workaround has merely helped prevent a complete information void rather than fully resolving the broader communication crisis.

Some opponents cite videos emerging from Gaza as evidence against the existence of a communication problem. However, this argument is flawed—these videos could have been uploaded during brief periods of connectivity by a limited number of individuals. Their existence does not indicate that communication is functioning reliably or at scale.
