AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Nearly 500,000 Palestinians in Gaza have been forcibly displaced over the past month due to ongoing Israeli army attacks, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said on Friday.
“Over the last month in Gaza, around half a million people have been newly displaced,” UNRWA said in a statement.
“The multiple displacement orders issued by the Israeli military leave Palestinians with less than a third of Gaza’s area to live in,” the agency said, warning “that remaining space is fragmented, unsafe, and barely livable.”
UNRWA added that “overcrowded shelters are in a terrible condition, service providers are struggling to operate, and the last resources are being depleted.”
Nearly 51,400 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza in a brutal Israeli onslaught since October 2023, most of them women and children.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
