The 2019 Gaza economic protests, also called the We Want to Live protests[2][1][3] and the 14 March Movement,[1] were a series of protests held in the Gaza Strip from 14 March to 18 March; demonstrators protested high costs of living and tax hikes. Moumen Al-Natour, a Palestinian lawyer and human rights activist, founded the We Want to Live movement.
The protests were met with violence by the Hamas which dispatched security forces to disperse protesters.[2] Several human rights organizations and political factions have denounced attacks on protesters by Hamas security forces.[2] The protests were described as the most severe anti-regime protests in Gaza since the Hamas takeover in 2007.[1]
