When hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza squeezed into crowded shelters during the war, one family found refuge among the tombstones.
Between November 9 and 20, Israel carried out at least six airstrikes targeting tents housing displaced Gazans in so-called ‘safe zones.’ According to locals, most of the casualties were women and children.
On August 4, the Israeli army bombed a group of tents inside the compound of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, killing three people. The bombing caused a number of tents to catch on fire, resulting in the injury of dozens of displaced civilians.
67 Palestinians, including babies and children, were killed Sunday night as Israel intensified bombing in Rafah, where over 1 million Palestinians are sheltering, in preparation for a ground invasion that experts warn would amount to genocide.
The situation in Jenin “continues deteriorating” as it enters its third day under Israeli military siege; meanwhile, in Gaza, displaced Palestinians face frigid temperatures under heavy rainfall.
