Wehda Street

Wehda Street (Arabic: شارع الوحدة‎) also spelled Wihda Street is a thoroughfare that runs through central Gaza City, more or less parallel with Omar Mukhtar Street. It branches off west of the main Salah al-Din Road which runs north–south through the Gaza Strip and opens into Nasser Street just before it ends at al-Shifa Hospital.[1] Notable Gaza landmarks, namely Qasr al-Basha and the Sayed Hashem Mosque are situated off Wehda Street.[2]
