This lessons paper was written for operational agencies responding to the humanitarian effort in Gaza in early 2009. It attempted to look at comparable crises such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Chechnya and Lebanon while recognising that there was no comparble situation. The lessons focus on humanitarian concerns, with some attention on recovery and reconstruction issues.
