In what it claims is a major air and ground offensive by Israel against Hamas after nearly two years of bloody battles, the Palestinian territory’s main urban hub.
“Over the past week, strikes in Gaza city have been particularly heavy, hitting IDP (internally displaced person) tents, residential structures, and public infrastructure,” according to OCHA.
Israeli strikes across the territory, including five in Gaza City, were reported by Gaza’s civil defense agency, which is a rescue organization under Hamas control.
11 people were killed by an airstrike on a home in central Gaza where displaced people had sought refuge, according to the civil defense.
AFP is unable to independently verify the information provided by the Israeli military or the civil defense due to media restrictions in the area and difficulty accessing many areas.
Palestinians were seen searching for survivors among the rubble with AFP footage from the days following the strike in the Al-Zawaida camp.
Nothing was left over for human use, according to resident Youssef Younis, who described the entire area as “destroyed.”
Ahmed Abu Dahrouj, a second Al-Zawaida resident, said, “We must end this war right away because we are going to die.”
According to the health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza, at least 65 Palestinians have been killed over the past two years by Israeli military offensives, the UN says are accurate.
According to an AFP tally based on Israeli data, Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, led to the deaths of 1, 219 people, most of them civilians.
