War in Gaza: Israeli forces press deeper into the north and south of the strip
The Israeli force has advanced deeper into northern and southern Gaza, re-entering the densely populated city of Jabalia in the north. The claimed goal is to prevent Hamas from reestablishing its capabilities, but the increasing civilian casualties indicate a different tale. Displaced Palestinians express sadness and anger as attacks continue. Meanwhile, Israeli forces escalate their attacks in southern Gaza, edging closer to a possible full-scale assault on Rafah. The United Nations human rights head strongly condemns such measures, citing violations of international humanitarian law and judicial decisions. Many Palestinians have been evacuated yet again, this time to a designated 'humanitarian zone' that lacks basic supplies.
