GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Hoping to make enough money to cover the costs of obtaining licenses for their resorts, owners of beach resorts in the Gaza Strip are looking forward to the summer season. Unlike previous years, these owners had to pay thousands of dollars this year, with some opting for merging their resorts with adjacent ones to share the license fees.
This was the case for Ghoroub, Houssam and Alaa Resort, which is made up of three separate resorts that were forced to merge due to higher license fees paid to the Gaza municipality in a bid to dodge potential losses amid the difficult economic circumstances in Gaza. The current economic situation is also reflected in the prices of services offered by the resorts.
