The attacks have destroyed many homes and public facilities, pushing people into a state of panic.
In the central area of Gaza, mainly eastern Deir el-Balah City, artillery shelling … targeted areas where the Israeli military claimed Palestinian fighting groups had "used infrastructure", without providing further information.
Those attacks have pushed people into further internal displacement; in the northern part of the Strip, people are not only struggling to deal with unpredictable falling bombs and attacks on their homes… but also the spread of dehydration and hunger.
This is happening on the first day of Eid, where we're looking at hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinian families, many of them in mourning.
