Forced displacement drives more than 1 million Palestinians away from Rafah, says UNRWA

Date:

More than twenty people have been killed in the latest Israeli bombings in southern and central Gaza. On the other hand, the Israeli army has announced the discovery of the remains of an Israeli killed on October 7.

Forced displacement has driven more than a million Palestinians from the Gaza city of Rafah, the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNRWA) announced on Monday.

According to aid groups, the small town on the southern edge of the Gaza Strip was home to about 1 million Palestinians fleeing Israeli attacks elsewhere in the enclave.

Since early May, the Israeli army has been conducting a “limited operation” in Rafah to root out Hamas fighters and dismantle infrastructure used by the Palestinian Islamist group that rules Gaza.

The Israeli army has ordered civilians to go to an “extended humanitarian zone” about 20 kilometers away.

Many Palestinians have complained that they are vulnerable to Israeli attacks wherever they go, and have moved up and down the Gaza Strip in recent months.

They find the remains of an Israeli who was murdered on October 7

The Israeli army claims to have found the remains of an Israeli killed in the October 7 Hamas attack around Kibbutz Nir Oz, near the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.

New scientific identification tests, along with information on the location of the remains, confirmed that they were the previously unidentified body of the 35-year-old Israeli.

The bombings in Gaza continue

More than 20 Gaza residents, including at least three children, were killed this morning in both Khan Younis (south) and the central part of the Palestinian enclave during incessant Israeli airstrikes despite ceasefire negotiations.
