Israel’s evacuation orders of Bureij and Nuseirat in central Gaza have sent tens of thousands of Palestinian residents fleeing to safe areas of the enclave.
However, the UN’s agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) estimates that just 14 percent of the enclave has not been impacted by evacuation order. The agency has warned that there is “nowhere safe to go” in Gaza.
Israel has killed 39,324 Palestinians in its war on Gaza, leaving a further 90,830 wounded destroying much of the enclaves housing and essential infrastructure.
Amid Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza, the country’s security cabinet has authorised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant to decide on the “manner and timing” of a strike on Hezbollah targets Lebanon.
The authorisation comes after a rocket attack killed 12 children in the town of Madfal Shams in the Israeli occupied Golan Heights on Saturday. Israel blamed the strike on Hezbollah, which it denied.
