“The Gaza Strip is witnessing a clear military escalation and a very high humanitarian crisis,” said Tareq Abu Azzoum from Al Jazeera del Centro de Gaza de Deir El-Balah. He pointed out that rescuers, with much of their damaged or destroyed team, are increasingly fighting to reach the victims trapped under remains.
The Communication Center of the Palestinian Authority, which governs Cisjordanian occupied, said that “there was no pause”, “without mercy”, “without humanity” to the attacks of Israel.
The statement accompanied video images that show an Israeli tank that moves through the apparent remains of the Shaboura refugee camp in southern Gaza.
“In the Shaboura refugee camp, as in any other corner of Gaza, the devastation never ends,” said the center.
‘Dismantling’ of the Palestinian life
The humanitarian crisis of Gaza is aggravated by the blocking of continuous aid of Israel, which the interim chief of the UN Office for the coordination of humanitarian affairs (OCA) has described as an apparent “deliberate dismantling of Palestinian life.”
