(The Muslim News): At least 31 Palestinians people have been killed and 141 injured in Israeli Defence Forces indiscriminate strikes across Gaza Strip over the past 24-hour reporting period, the health ministry says. this has increased Palestinians killed by Israeli forces since 7 October to 39,300 killed and 90,830 wounded, according to Health Ministry in the onclave.
UN humanitarian agency’s branch for the occupied Palestinian territories has said that about 29,000 people were staying in the area designated by the Israeli military for evacuation today.
“Over 200,000 have already been displaced over the past week by previous orders,” the agency said, adding that it comprises 9 percent of Gaza’s population.
“Recurrent displacement is depriving civilians of dignified survival,” OCHA said.
UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini says Israeli evacuation orders create “havoc” and “panic” among the population of the Gaza Strip.
“Almost everyone in Gaza has been impacted by these orders. Many were forced to flee on average once a month since the war began nine months ago,” Lazzarini said on X.
“This evacuation tactic only brings more misery, fear and suffering for people who have nothing to do with this war.”
