7. 以色列对加沙地带的封锁现已进入第九个年头，2014 年冲突后的重建工作速度仍然太慢，委员会对这一局势仍深为关切。委员会呼吁以色列按照日内瓦公约的要求，履行其作为占领国的责任，并呼吁结束对巴勒斯坦人民的封锁和集体惩罚，正常并持续开放边界过境点，让人员和货物不受阻碍地进出加沙地带。委员会还表彰捐助者承诺提供慷慨援助，为重建提供资金，并呼吁履行承诺，以加速必要的重建工作，减少持续存在的人道主义危机。
7. The Committee remains deeply concerned about the situation in the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli blockade is now in its ninth year and the pace of reconstruction after the conflict in 2014 remains too slow. The Committee calls on Israel to live up to its responsibilities as the occupying Power, in accordance with the Geneva Conventions, and calls for an end to the blockade and collective punishment of the Palestinian people and for unimpeded movement of persons and goods into and out of the Gaza Strip through the regular and sustained opening of its border crossings. The Committee also recognizes the generous support pledged by donors to provide funding for reconstruction and calls for the fulfilment of pledges to accelerate needed rebuilding and to alleviate the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
