City of fear': Palestinians trapped as Israel intensifies Gaza City attack
"Almost one million remain in the city; those who flee risk death elsewhere in enclave, with no safe place to hide from the bombs. The Israeli military's indiscriminate bombing of Gaza City is reducing entire neighbourhoods to rubble, forcing residents to flee in panic, with nowhere safe in the enclave, which has been under unrelenting bombardment for 23 months. Israel's round-the-clock assault on what UNICEF has dubbed the city of fear"
"Attacks were reported in Gaza City's Zeitoun, Sabra, Tuffah, Nassr and Shujayea districts, as the military erased entire neighbourhoods in its bid to drive out approximately one million people from the enclave's largest urban hub. Heavy bombardment in the Tuffah neighbourhood killed at least eight people and injured dozens more, according to Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson of the territory's civil emergency service."
Indiscriminate Israeli military bombardment has devastated Gaza City, reducing neighborhoods to rubble and forcing nearly one million residents to flee with no safe haven. The enclave has endured unrelenting bombardment for 23 months, with round-the-clock assaults hitting tents and residential buildings, killing entire families, including children. Video footage shows destroyed tents and scattered belongings amid blood-stained debris. Attacks have struck multiple districts—Zeitoun, Sabra, Tuffah, Nassr, and Shujayea—killing and injuring dozens, and prompting repeated displacement as people move between areas still within the range of air strikes and artillery fire.
