Israel War: The Israeli army entered southern Gaza City, hospitals full of dead and injured; the UN Chief took a big step


Posted on 7th Dec 2023 10:43 am by rohit kumar

Israeli soldiers reached the center of Khan Younis city in southern Gaza on Wednesday and fought a hand-to-hand battle with Hamas. Despite not having a safe area, Palestinian citizens were forced to flee elsewhere. This two-month-long struggle, which started on October 7, reached its heaviest phase on Wednesday. Here Israeli warplanes bombed the targets in the densely populated coastal area.

 

The effect of this fighting was that hospitals were filled with dead and injured. Most of them are women and children. Palestinian doctors said hospitals were running out of medical supplies. Common citizens are searching for shelter but have to live on the streets. The Israeli army advanced toward the southern city with tanks on Wednesday surrounded the city of Khan Yunis and started firing. He attacked hundreds of targets, including a terrorist cell near a school. Hamas' armed wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, said Wednesday's fighting was fierce and left an unknown number of people dead and wounded. Israeli tanks, he said, were deployed on the edge of the Khan Yunis refugee camp.

plight of Palestinians

Hamdi Tanira, a Palestinian civilian who fled from a house during the bombing, said, I was lucky to escape. 30 people including 20 children were sleeping in that house. Hardly anyone is left among them. Amal Mehdi, another survivor, said it was a miracle that we were pulled from the debris. Dr. Al-Ahad of Nasser Hospital said, I have never seen such a scene, there is no place to store dead bodies, and treatment is difficult.

 

Aid supplies were badly affected

Aid supplies to southern Gaza have been badly hit in the latest conflict. The UN humanitarian aid office said, in the last three days, flour and drinking water could only be delivered to areas near Rafah on Egypt's southern border because Israeli forces have closed the roads. Fuel-medical supplies at Al-Aqsa Hospital have reached 'minimum levels'.
