Israel has launched another severe attack on Gaza, ordering residents in the northern part of the region to evacuate immediately. This comes amid rising violence following the recent conflict between Iran and Israel.
For a brief period during the Iran-Israel war, the people of Gaza experienced some calm. However, after Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s defeat against Iran, Israel has intensified its strikes on Gaza’s Muslim population. Despite U.S. President Donald Trump’s earlier promise to help enforce a ceasefire in Gaza, Israeli attacks have continued with increased force.
Israel and its Western allies seem caught in a contradiction over Gaza. While Trump calls for peace and an end to the fighting, Israel’s military has ordered the evacuation of northern Gaza. According to a recent report, the Israeli military instructed residents of northern Gaza to leave their homes on Sunday. The army said the order aims to strengthen attacks against Hamas, the Islamist group controlling Gaza.
Though Israel says it targets Hamas fighters, many civilians suffer in the crossfire. In the past 24 hours alone, Israeli airstrikes have killed 81 people in Gaza and injured around 400. Among the dead are 11 children. One particularly tragic strike near a stadium in Gaza City destroyed homes and took many innocent lives.
The evacuation order has created great fear among Gaza’s residents. With fighting escalating, many are unsure where to find safety. The region is already overcrowded and struggling with limited resources, making evacuation difficult for many families.
In the United States, President Trump has urged a swift ceasefire. On social media, he posted a message calling for peace agreements and the safe return of hostages. An Israeli military officer also warned that if attacks continue to spread across Gaza, it will be very difficult to recover hostages alive.
Although Netanyahu has remained quiet after his defeat by Iran, Israel’s strikes on Gaza have not stopped. The situation is growing more dangerous for civilians as the conflict intensifies.
