Thousands of Palestinians Flee as Israeli Bombs Rain Down on Gaza City
Israel's ground offensive in Gaza City has displaced approximately 350,000 Palestinians amid intense bombardment and widespread destruction of residential buildings, officials reported.
- On Tuesday, Israeli forces launched a ground operation and heavy bombardment in Gaza City, killing at least 106 people and displacing hundreds of thousands.
- The offensive followed weeks of air strikes on Gaza, and an Israeli estimate said about 350,000 people fled within the city while another 190,000 left entirely.
- The Israeli army used explosive robots destroying multiple buildings including the Aybaki Mosque, while thousands of residents fled under intense shelling and air strikes.
- UN Secretary-General António Guterres called the war "morally, politically and legally intolerable" and described Gaza's destruction as "horrendous" amid accusations of genocide by UN inquiries.
- The ongoing assault could take months to control Gaza City, and the large-scale displacement and destruction warn of a worsening humanitarian crisis and ongoing violence.
