Israeli Army burns alive displaced people in al-Mawasi, Khan Yunis displacement tents
The Israeli occupation army burned displaced people alive in al-Mawasi, Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip after directly targeting their displacement tents, killing 22 Palestinians, half of whom were women and children. An additional 18 people suffered burn wounds during the attack. At approximately 6:07pm on Wednesday, Israeli aircraft and helicopters fired multiple missiles at the tents of displaced people in al-Mawasi, Khan Yunis, an area Israel claims to be a safe humanitarian zone.
The displaced people were burned alive in their ramshackle tents, resulting in the death of 22 Palestinians — including eight children and three women, one of whom was a mother and her two daughters from the Shurab family — while 18 others suffered burns and various other wounds. Based on details collected by Euro-Med Monitor’s field team regarding the bombing operation, the Israeli army deliberately targeted civilians. The operation began with a request to evacuate part of the targeted area, during which an Israeli helicopter fired a missile at the displaced people as they were evacuating. The raids were subsequently repeated across a 700-metre area, directly striking the displaced people’s tents and setting them ablaze.
Israel forces thousands of Palestinians to flee Gaza’s Beit Lahia
People seeking shelter in the northern Gaza town have been made to flee amid brutal months-long offensive accused of aiming to ethnically cleanse the area. Israeli forces have displaced thousands of Palestinians seeking shelter in Beit Lahia, a town in northern Gaza, amid a military offensive in the area that has caused widespread ruin. Palestinians have been forcibly displaced from the town through an Israeli checkpoint where boys and men have been separated from their families, arrested and taken in for questioning, according to the Turkish state-run Anadolu Agency. A woman who was heading towards the checkpoint told Arab48 that troops forced her husband and disabled 12-year-old son to stay behind, separating her and her other child from them. “The Israelis took away our men,” she said. Amna Hussein, a woman interviewed by Anadolu Agency, said they were forced to flee the area after Israeli tanks surrounded them and intensified the shelling of shelters.
