Thousands of Palestinians fled to southern Gaza in search of refuge on Saturday after Israel warned them to evacuate before an expected ground offensive against Hamas in retaliation for the deadliest attack in Israel’s history.
At least 1,900 Gazans — most of them civilians and including more than 600 children — have been killed in waves of missile strikes on the densely populated enclave, the health ministry said. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres described the situation as having reached “a dangerous new low”.US President Joe Biden said addressing the humanitarian crisis was a “priority”.
In the occupied West Bank, at least 16 Palestinians were killed in clashes with Israeli forces during protests supporting Gaza, the health ministry said. In Jordan, after a meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, King Abdullah II called for “humanitarian corridors” to be opened urgently. AFP correspondents said there were “heavy strikes” in the northern Gaza Strip on Friday, including on Al-Shati refugee camp and Gaza City, primarily targeting residential buildings.The Israeli military said its “fighter jets struck 750 military targets in the northern Gaza Strip overnight” including “residences of senior terrorist operatives used as military command centres”.
Some walked while others drove, with belongings strapped to their trucks, cars and carts pulled by donkeys. Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said it will be “tantamount to a second Nakba” or “catastrophe”, referring to the 760,000 Palestinians who fled or were expelled from their homes during the 1948 war that accompanied Israel’s creation.
