Gaza on Fire: Israel Militarizes 85% of Territory and Forces Palestinians to Flee!
Can anyone still believe in any humanity in this conflict? UNRWA announced today that a staggering 85% of Gaza’s territory now falls under militarized zones controlled by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) or is subject to forced evacuation orders. Yes, you read that right – eighty-five percent! This means most of Gaza is practically a war zone, and civilians are being forced to flee their homes.
Massive Displacement and Humanitarian Disaster
According to UNRWA’s report, since Israel broke the ceasefire in March, tens of thousands of Palestinians have been displaced again. And that’s not all – the fuel crisis in Gaza is deepening, with no new deliveries for four months! Without fuel, hospitals and health facilities face severe operational challenges. Restrictions on movement and medical supplies only make things worse.
Healthcare on the Brink of Collapse
Gaza’s healthcare system is on the edge of collapse. UNRWA warns that medical facilities are under immense pressure, with many injured and sick people and insufficient resources to treat them. Without fuel, hospitals can’t function properly, leaving patients without necessary care.
Who’s to Blame for This Catastrophe?
Israel has militarized most of Gaza’s territory and ordered evacuations while simultaneously blocking fuel and medical supplies. The result? Thousands of civilians displaced and a worsening humanitarian crisis day by day. The UN and international organizations warn of violations of international humanitarian law and call for urgent protection of civilians.
What Are Others Saying?
UN Secretary-General António Guterres condemned Israeli attacks and warned of a horrific humanitarian crisis in Gaza. He emphasized that international law requires the protection of civilians and that Israeli operations have forced tens of thousands of Palestinians to flee. In one day this week alone, nearly 30,000 people were forced to run away with no safe place to shelter.
Is This the End?
Hamas, on the other hand, has been considering a ceasefire proposal involving other Palestinian groups. The US ambassador to Israel expressed hope that a ceasefire agreement would be reached, but it depends on Hamas’s acceptance. While negotiations continue, civilians in Gaza keep suffering – without food, medicine, or safety.
Conclusion: Where Is the Humanity?
As the world watches, Gaza is turning into a military zone, and its people into refugees on their own land. Militarization of 85% of the territory, mass evacuations, fuel and medical blockades – it sounds like a recipe for disaster. And us? We can only watch and wonder where humanity has gone in this conflict.
