Israel Intensifies Military Campaign in Gaza, Issues New Evacuation Orders

Israeli forces are expanding their operations in Gaza amid ongoing humanitarian concerns.


As Israel pushes deeper into Gaza, residents face renewed displacement and worsening conditions.

Israeli military actions in Gaza escalated dramatically on Sunday, as forces gained control over additional territories and issued new evacuation orders for residents who had just begun to return home. The offensive marks a significant intensification following the breakdown of talks aimed at prolonging a tenuous cease-fire, which was established in mid-January and has now faltered.

In a statement on Sunday, the Israeli military announced that ground operations have expanded into areas in both northern and southern Gaza. Troops began specific operations in Beit Hanoun, located in the north, in an effort to increase a safety buffer zone. Beyond ground actions, airstrikes targeted various Hamas infrastructures throughout the enclave.

Alerts were specifically issued for the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood of Rafah to evacuate, directing residents to leave on foot along a designated path while prohibiting vehicle movement. The local municipality in Rafah reported that thousands of families, affected by the ongoing bombardment, were now displaced during the holy month of Ramadan. This influx of displaced persons occurs amidst tragic shortages of essential goods and housing supplies triggered by the Israeli government’s closure of border crossings.

The continuation of military operations, combined with dire living conditions, underscores the mounting humanitarian crisis faced by Palestinians in Gaza, as residents struggle to find safety and basic necessities amidst the chaos.
