Israeli forces have escalated their assault on Jabalia camp in northern Gaza, resulting in civilian casualties and displacement. With more than 400,000 people trapped in the area, the Israeli military’s actions have raised concerns about forced evacuations and a potential large-scale transfer of the population.
The United Nations Human Rights Office has criticized Israel for isolating North Gaza and preventing civilians from returning to their homes. The recent violence has left civilians in dire conditions, with medical facilities and essential services shut down.
‘Beyond any rationale’
UN chief Antonio Guterres has condemned the civilian casualties in the intensifying conflict. The situation in northern Gaza is dire, with reports of shortages of medical supplies and increasing casualties. Hamas has accused Israel of aiming to forcibly displace the people of northern Gaza.
Amid ongoing violence, calls for a ceasefire continue, emphasizing the need to protect civilians and break the cycle of violence. The international community is urged to take action against the escalating crisis in Gaza.
