On September 16, 2025, Israel launched a massive ground offensive in Gaza City, stepping up the conflict despite international outcry. 🇵🇸🔥
According to Israeli military spokesman Effie Defrin, the operation could take "months" as troops push into "widespread" areas of the city. This follows weeks of heavy bombardments in neighborhoods like Jabalia, Zeitoun, and Sheikh Radwan.
The onslaught has forced thousands more Palestinians to flee Gaza City, heading south in search of safety. For many families, it’s a painful cycle of displacement they’ve already endured since the crisis began.
As shelters overflow and streets empty, the human cost of this offensive becomes impossible to ignore. Communities are stretched thin, and hope is in short supply as residents brace for the long road ahead. 😔
