What forms of censorship are Palestinians experiencing according to the bookseller?

According to the Palestinian bookseller, authorities are systematically removing books with any connection to Palestinian identity from shelves. They specifically target materials containing references to the Palestinian national movement, flags, refugees, political parties, or any representation of Palestinian identity. This censorship occurs alongside severe humanitarian conditions, including harassment, violence, and lack of basic necessities like food, water, and hygiene. The speaker emphasizes that these conditions are 'beyond description,' highlighting the comprehensive nature of the restrictions Palestinians face, which extend from cultural expression to fundamental human rights.
