The military requirement for the evacuation of these areas, which could mean that an attack on neighborhoods in Deir al -Balah has been an alarm to the Israeli hostage families, who fear that their relatives may be held there.
Most of the Gaza Strip has been turned into ruins during the warwhich broke out after the high attack of Palestinian Islamist Islamic Organization in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, and fears that famine is growing at accelerated rates.
Health officials at al -Sidas Hospital in the northern strip of Gaza said How at least 44 Palestinians were killed and dozens still injured by Israeli fire as crowds gathered to wait for the UN trucks entering the help.
Palestinian health officials said hundreds of people may die shortly as hospitals have been flooded with patients suffering from dizziness and exhaustion due to the rarity of food and the collapse of distribution.
IDF area evacuation order
“We warn that hundreds of people whose organizations have lost their forces are at risk of dying because of hunger,” the Hamas health ministry said. The United Nations also said that civilians are starving and needing an urgent influx of help.
The Israeli army threw a flywheel by ordering the world in southwestern districts Deir al -Balah, where hundreds of thousands of displaced Gazaians have found refuge, to leave their homes and head south.
“The (Israeli) defense forces continue to operate with great force to destroy the enemy’s abilities and the terrorist infrastructure in the area,” the army said, adding that it had not entered these neighborhoods during the war so far.
Israeli sources said that the reason the army had been left away from these neighborhoods so far is because Hamas could suspect hostages there. At least 20 of the 50 hostages held in Gaza is believed to be still alive.
Homer families demanded explanations from the army.
“Can anyone promise us that this decision will not cost the loss of our loved ones? “The families said in a statement. Some Palestinians have said that the evacuation order for Deir al -Balah may be an attempt to put pressure on Hamas in order to make more concessions in the ceasefire negotiations.
Israel and Hamas have been involved in indirect talks in Doha to achieve a 60 -day truce and an agreement on hostages, although there is no evidence of significant progress.
Humanitarian crisis and famine
Residents said it is impossible to find necessary foods such as flour. The Sylakas Ministry of Health said at least 71 children died of malnutrition during the war and another 60,000 were suffering from malnutrition symptoms.
Food prices have risen far beyond the financial potential of most of the two million inhabitants of the Gaza Strip.
Several people who spoke to Reuters through chat applications (chat) said they either had a meal or no one in the last 24 hours.
“I wake up and get up early in the morning in search of food, even a loaf of bread for my five children, but in vain,” said Ziand, who is a nurse.
“People who do not die from the bombs will die of hunger. We want this war to end now, a truce, even for two months, “he told Reuters.
Others said they felt dizzy as they walked the street and that many fainted in the middle of the road. Fathers are leaving the tents so that they do not have to answer their children’s questions what to eat.
UN intervention
UNRWA, the UN service for Palestinian refugees, has asked Israel to allow more trucks to enter the Gaza Strip, saying it has enough food for the entire population for more than three months that it was not allowed to pass.
“The Israeli authorities let civilians starve in Gaza. Among them are one million children. Stop the siege: Allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines ”he wrote today on the X platform.
Israel has denied accusations of preventing the help from reaching Gaza and has accused Hamas of stealing food, something Hamas denies. It also says that the United Nations has not brought help that is ready to pass to Gaza.
