OCCUPIED AL-QUDS, Aug.24, (ST)-Approximately 100,000 Palestinians have been displaced from eastern Deir al-Balah in central Gaza over the past two days due to ongoing and intense Israeli airstrikes on the city and its surroundings.
Local sources reported that 20 shelter centers have been rendered inoperative due to the heavy bombardment and evacuation orders issued by the Israeli occupation.
According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the occupation authorities have issued 16 evacuation orders between July 1 and August 21. Additionally, approximately 213,000 Palestinians have been forcibly displaced from the beginning of August to the 16th of this month.
UN data indicates that 9 out of 10 people in Gaza have experienced displacement as a result of the Israeli attacks since the outbreak of the aggression in October 2023. The organization’s statistics further reveal that most residents of Gaza are compelled to relocate at least once a month due to the ongoing onslaught.
