Israel has intensified its campaign in Gaza, issuing mass evacuation orders across both northern and southern regions, including areas previously labeled as “safe zones.”
Amid these developments, a tragic incident in central Gaza’s az-Zawayda saw at least 15 people killed in an overnight Israeli airstrike on displaced civilians.
