Gaza: After weeks of Israeli bombardment that left them with nowhere to go, hundreds of Palestinians ended up in a former Gaza prison built to house murderers and thieves.
Yasmin Al-Dardasi said that she and her family passed the wounded who were unable to help them, and they were being evacuated from an area south of Khan Yunis city to its central rehabilitation and rehabilitation center.
They spent a day under the tree and then went to the former prison, where they now live in the chapel. It protects from blistering sun but not much else.
Al-Dardasi's husband has kidney damage and has only one lung, but no mattress or blanket.
“We're not based here either,” said al-Dardasi, who, like many Palestinians, fears being uprooted once again.
Israel has said that it will do its best to protect civilians.
Palestinians, many of whom have been displaced multiple times, say no place is free from Israeli bombardment, which has reduced much of Gaza to ruins.
At least 90 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli air strike on July 13 in the designated humanitarian zone in al-Mawasi, the region's health ministry said, in an attack Israel said targeted fugitive Hamas military commander Mohammad Deif. .
On Thursday, the Gaza Ministry of Health announced that Israeli military strikes on areas east of Khan Yunis left 14 dead.
Entire neighborhoods have been flattened in one of the most densely populated places in the world, where poverty and unemployment have long been widespread.
Nine out of ten people across Gaza are now internally displaced, according to the United Nations.
He said Israeli soldiers told Saria Abu Mustafa and her family that they had to flee for safety because tanks were on their way. The family did not have time to change and went to pray in their clothes.
After sleeping outside on the sandy ground, they also took refuge in the prison, among the piles of rubble and gaping holes in the buildings from the battles fought there. The prisoners were released long before the Israeli attack.
We did not take anything with us. We came here on foot and the children were walking with us.
He kept his niece who was born during the conflict and her father and brothers were killed.
Palestinian health officials say more than 39,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air and ground attacks since October 7.
Hana al-Sayed Abu Mustafa was imprisoned after being displaced six times.
He and other Palestinians could be on the move again if mediators from Egypt, the United States and Qatar fail to secure the ceasefire they have long said is imminent.
“Where should we go? Everywhere we go is dangerous.”
