Background

"On 7 October 2023, militants from Hamas, a Palestinian political and military organization and other Palestinian groups, launched its biggest assault in years across the Gaza–Israel barrier into southern Israel, as well as firing rockets into Israel"

I don't think this captures the gravity of the attack, and the mention of Hamas as a political and military organization fails to include that Hamas is designated as a terrorist organization by numerous countries.

2023 Israeli blockade of the Gaza StripBlockade of the Gaza Strip during the Israel–Hamas war – This isn't a separate blockade from the general Blockade of the Gaza Strip, nor is it limited to 2023. This article covers the blockade during the war (and particularly, its escalation); the title should reflect that. Elli (talk | contribs) 16:17, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Your very premise is false, This is a separate blockade from the “general blockade of the Gaza strip”. [1] Stephan rostie (talk) 14:58, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's not a separate blockade. It's an expansion of the overall blockade. Your source does not demonstrate otherwise, nor does your comment otherwise refute the move rationale. Elli (talk | contribs) 20:21, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per move rationale for the sake of consistency, and is also not exclusively Israeli FortunateSons (talk) 11:32, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Strong oppose this completely contradicts
WP:COMMONNAME and against what RS have been reporting [1]. Makeandtoss (talk) 09:18, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

How does this contradict COMMONNAME? That source doesn't call it the "2023 Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip" or even include "2023" at all. Elli (talk | contribs) 23:41, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: The topic here is a specific event that needs dating and which has had various announced names, include blockade, total blockage, siege and total siege. It differs significantly from the long-term blockade, extending not least as it does to the cutting off of electricity, water and other essentials that it is the legal responsibility of the Israeli state to provide to the occupied territories. It is a specific, notable war crime.
