Thousands of Palestinians are on the move again as Israel has issued fresh evacuation orders in Gaza's Deir al Balah. This comes as Israeli tanks and drones struck Deir al Balah and Khan Younis, killing 17 people, according to Al Jazeera.
Gazans who have already been displaced at least 10 times since the war broke out, are left with hardly any safe spots left to go.
“Over the past days, new evacuation orders have been issued affecting over 100,000 people that have been pushed out now of Khan Younis and Deir al-Balah area. They're on the move with the few belongings that they have, looking for somewhere where they can put up their temporary shelters," said Jonathan Whittall, an official of UN Humanitarian Affairs.
“We don't have enough tents. We don't have any tents for distributes to people. There's no scope for us to distribute to people. And water supply has dropped by 70 percent because many of the desalination plants and the water wells are inside the evacuation areas. The conditions are overcrowded. People have some places to put temporary shelters right up to the water, on the beach. There's nowhere left to go in what is now 11 percent of Gaza. That is the area in which the people have been pushed to. Around us, there continue to be explosions airstrikes, conflicts, continuing. People are afraid they're being displaced or the second, third, fourth, up to 10th times, looking for somewhere safe. There's no way safer Gaza. Instead, they continue to find overcrowded unacceptable conditions," Whittal added.
