"This time there is no intention to allow the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return to their homes and that humanitarian aid will regularly enter the southern Gaza Strip - since there are no more civilians left north of Gaza City," the Israeli military said, according to Israel's broadcasting corporation's Amichai Stein. This stark declaration highlights the severity of the situation as the Israeli military plans to clear the northern region of all Palestinians, indicating a strategic intent behind their operations that many are deeming ethnic cleansing.
According to reports, the announcement appears to be the next step of the 'Generals' Plan,' an Israeli roadmap to empty north Gaza of all Palestinians through mass killing, starvation and forced displacement. Advocates for Palestinian rights have been vocal about this being a clear act of ethnic cleansing and a flagrant violation of international law, fundamentally undermining the humanitarian situation in the region.
The announcement serves as a threat toward families who are still in north Gaza, many of whom have been effectively trapped by Israel's ceaseless bombardments and are facing an imminent risk of being forcibly displaced without any means of escape. Analysts suggest that the infrastructure being implemented by Israeli forces amid these conditions showcases a blatant intention to carry out this plan of erasure, raising significant concerns about the human cost and moral implications of this military strategy.
