Intensive Israeli airstrikes occurred across the Gaza Strip, targeting areas like Khan Younis and Gaza City, leading to the deaths of at least 250 Palestinians in just two days. This escalation followed Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's pledge for a large-scale ground operation. Reports emerged of consistent evacuation orders from the military, causing anxiety among civilians in refugee camps, particularly Shati'. As the assault continued, the destruction of local hospitals and infrastructure further compounded the humanitarian crisis in the region.
The renewed wave of bombings comes a few days after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged last week to "enter Gaza with full force" in implementation of a new expanded ground offensive approved by the Israeli war cabinet nearly a month ago, dubbed "Gideon's Chariots."
A resident of the Shati' refugee camp in Gaza City told Mondoweiss that "the occupation army had issued orders to evacuate Shati' camp, but they called off the orders - and then they called for an evacuation again, keeping residents in constant anxiety."
