Since dawn, Israeli forces have bombed Gaza City, the main urban center in the besieged enclave, to make way for at least 91 Palestinians.

At least 76 Palestinians were killed in Gaza City alone, according to medical sources in Gaza hospitals, according to Al Jazeera on Saturday. The Israeli army has been attempting to forcibly expel the entire population in recent weeks.

At least six people were killed in an Israeli drone attack in the Tuffah neighborhood. At least five people were killed in an Israeli assault in the Shati camp in western Gaza City, according to an ambulance source who was on the ground with our Al Jazeera colleagues.

In the area, according to the Israeli military, up to 20 tower blocks have been destroyed in the last two weeks.

Since Israel’s announcement to occupy and capture Gaza City in August, roughly 450, 000 people have fled the city center, according to the Gaza Civil Defense.

According to Al Jazeera’s reporter from central Gaza, Israeli forces were reportedly attacking people as they fled following Israel’s forced expulsion orders.

Residents claim that the army uses quadcopters to kill residents who try to escape their neighborhoods, and that they also use these robots because they reportedly feel earthquakes whenever they explode.

Meanwhile, 48 Israeli prisoners held in Gaza were released on Saturday, according to Hamas, the country’s ruling group.

Hamas has repeatedly warned that an increase in Israeli airstrikes and ground invasions would seriously harm the captives, and some have already been killed by Israeli bombs.

Additionally, the armed Palestinian organization claims that prisoners are “scattered throughout Gaza City’s neighbourhoods.”

“Heartbreaking” situation in al-Mawasi

The Israeli army said it is continuing its military operations in the south despite the Israeli army’s continued deadly bombing and destruction of Gaza City.

At least three of the victims were aid workers who had been abducted by Israeli forces at a distribution center in southern Gaza near Rafah.

The al-Mawasi region in southern Gaza, which the Israeli army called a “safe zone” and where Palestinians in the north were told to flee, was “overcrowded,” according to Al Jazeera’s Khoudary, leaving many people with few options.

“Some tents are visible on the side of the street,” the resident said. She said that people have literally pitched their tents where there isn’t water, electricity, or infrastructure.

“Palestinians have no other choice,” the statement states.

The situation in al-Mawasi is described as “heartbreaking,” according to Michail Fotiadis of the medical charity Doctors Without Borders, which is known by its French name MSF.

“Everyone is looking for a tent pitching location, but there are no available materials. The population is in absolute disarray right now. From al-Mawasi, which Israel refers to as a “humanitarian zone,” Fotiadis told Al Jazeera from the al-Mawasi region.

He claimed that as more Palestinians leave Gaza’s northern neighborhoods without anything after escaping Israel’s military siege.

Chelsea’s first half drew to the worst start of the season on Saturday when Robert Sanchez was sent off in the fifth minute for a flying lunge at Bryan Mbeumo, upending the United goalkeeper as he was passing the ball through the goal.

With just one victory to their name in the previous campaign, the hosts capitalized on their numerical advantage, with Fernandes and Casemiro putting United ahead by 2-0 inside 37 minutes.

Chelsea regained control of the game after Casemiro’s needless dismissal just before halftime, but Trevoh Chalobah’s late header held on for a crucial three points.

After suffering a defeat in the Manchester derby last weekend, United coach Ruben Amorim has had a win record of just eight out of 31 league games since taking over the reins last November.

Amorim had the chance to start making amends to that parable return, which saw the Blues never win at Old Trafford since 2013. The beleaguered United manager’s cause was greatly aided by Sanchez’s reckless approach.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca was forced into an early reshuffle after making three substitutions in the first 21 minutes, the first time a team has ever made that in a Premier League game, along with the additional setback of Cole Palmer’s injury withdrawal.

In the relentlessly wet conditions at Old Trafford, Fernandes scored his 100th goal for United in all competitions, adding to the atmosphere.

After Luke Shaw’s determined work, Casemiro, the veteran Brazilian who had scored his first goal of the season, glaredly put United in an unassailable position.

Casemiro became the first Premier League player to score and receive a red card after being booked against Arsenal by Spurs in November 2012, making him the first player to do so afterward.

Chelsea didn’t even have a chance to attack until Chalobah’s header ten minutes from time. United initially appeared ragged, but Altay Bayindir held on for the most part in the home goal while remaining largely unaffected.

In a post-match interview, Amorim praised United’s aggression and urgency, but he wishes his team had been more diplomatic and patient to prevent sight-seeing.

“I don’t have much to say to the critics, but they are usually correct.” He told Sky Sports, “We won today, and it’s a good day for us.”

“We can defeat Grimsby,” but any team can win. I’m just contemplating the following one. Wining is fantastic. We must win again because it is so crucial to us.

Maresca, on the other hand, lamented Sanchez’s early red card.

“We need to improve our game. He claimed that after three minutes, “we cannot accept a red card at Old Trafford.”

After Ryan Gravenberch scored and assisted in a 2-1 win over Everton at Anfield, Liverpool continued to have a perfect start to their Premier League campaign on Saturday.

Graham Potter’s team lost to Crystal Palace 2-1 in another bad day for West Ham, their fourth defeat in five games.

Wolves fell to Leeds 3-1 away at the top of the table and are still looking for their first points after five games, sending Vitor Pereira’s side to the bottom.

Tottenham resurrected to salvage a 2-2 draw after going behind by 2-0 at Brighton.
