Israel’s intensified bombardment of Rafah has led to the displacement of more than 100,000 people, marking the largest movement of population in Gaza in months. The UN officials are closely monitoring the situation, with concerns growing about the lack of basic amenities for the newly displaced individuals.
The attacks have caused widespread fear and chaos in Rafah, with roads clogged with fleeing residents. The situation is further exacerbated by the closure of aid stockpiles after seven months of war, making it difficult for agencies to provide relief.
As the conflict escalates, Israel has conducted airstrikes and tank bombardments across different parts of Rafah, resulting in casualties and further displacements. The US has expressed opposition to Israel’s actions, leading to strain in relations between the two allies.
With the escalation of violence, humanitarian concerns are mounting in Gaza, including acute shortages of fuel, food, and medical supplies. The ongoing conflict has taken a toll on the residents of Rafah, with many forced to flee their homes in search of safety and basic necessities.
