It depends on how it is spelled. There are two different roots that yield the same sound.

Gháza (غزة) is the name of city in Palestine currently ruled by Hamas as well as the slang term for Qita3 Gháza (قطاع غزة) which is called the Gaza Strip in English.

Ghazá (غزا) means "he invaded".

The word “Gaza” comes from the Hebrew “Azzah,” loosely meaning strong city. The entire region is named for its capital city, which has been conquered many times over the centuries. Among its many rulers were the Philistines. The theme of “strength” is indirectly connected to Gaza in The Bible.
