Thousands of Palestinians were ordered by Israeli forces to flee from parts of northern Gaza, as blind air strikes killed at least 115 people on the territory.
Palestinians from the Beit Lahiya region from northern Gaza fled their homes with essential cases on Friday after intense Israeli air strikes hit the area.
More than 19,000 Palestinians have been moved to Gaza since Thursday afternoon, according to the International Organization for Migration (OIM). “Much with anything other than clothes on the back,” the organization said in an article on X. “Nowhere in safety in Gaza.”
Almost the entire population of Gaza was moved at some point during the genocide, with several forced to flee several times. Israel has increasingly issued forced displacement orders while he degenerates his attacks into the enclave.
In a declaration in Arabic on Saturday, the Israeli army said that it has launched the “initial stages” of what it calls the tanks of Operation Gideon, a new offensive for “The expansion of the battle in the Gaza Strip, with the aim of achieving all the objectives of the war, including the release of the kidnapped and the defeat of Hamas”.
A separate declaration in English said that the army “mobilized the troops to obtain operational control in the areas of the Gaza Strip”.
Israel has killed at least 115 Palestinians in Gaza since dawn Friday while he intensifies the bombing of the enclave in the middle of forced famine. More than 100 other Palestinians were killed Thursday in similar attacks.
Since October 2023, Israel has killed at least 53,119 Palestinians and injured 120,214 others, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. The Enclave Government Media Bureau has updated the number of deaths at more than 61,700, saying that thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead.
