Breeders of Arabian horses in Gaza have been struggling to secure the necessary medicines and vaccinations due to Israeli restrictions.

The Gaza Strip has been under a blockade imposed by Israel since June 2007.

Israel also bans the entry of new horse breeds into the Gaza Strip and prevents them from participating in Arab and international competitions.

Horse breeding in Gaza, is limited to a certain group of amateurs because of their high prices involved.

Another difficulty of keeping horses in the Gaza Strip, is that it lacks open spaces for equestrian sports, as well as funding for vaccinations and medicines, or facilities to get out of Gaza to participate in Arab and international competitions.

Horses in the Gaza Strip need ongoing medical and nutritional care to remain healthy, which is currently not available on the market because Israel has banned the entry of horse medicines.
