Yea, 41 km long strip between 6-12 km at its widest, three sides have a 20 ft high concrete wall and a heavily monitored and completely restricted ocean front . Israel controls all critical infrastructure supply (electricity , water, tele-communications - that can and are regularly shut off) and controlled entry points that are easily blockaded preventing supply of consumer commodities and medicines etc. But hey, pisrael was kind enough to finally give them self autonomy to govern themselves how they see fit. It's why its commonly referred to in some circles as the world's most populous and largest open air concentration camp. EDIT: Plus the Concrete wall cut through gaza resident's most fertile farm lands and halved/ three quartered it overnight.
