More than 65,000 Palestinians have been killed and 166,000 injured in Gaza since October 2023, according to authorities. The desperate search for safety has led many to so-called 'safe zones' declared by Israel—but these havens have become targets themselves.
Humanitarian workers say the irony is tragic: shelters bombed, aid centers turned into scenes of chaos, and hope itself shattered 💔. CGTN correspondent Elina al-Yazji describes blockades of essential relief, harrowing lines for food and water, and families forced to make impossible choices.
On the ground, people report that 'safe zones' offer no real protection. Confusion reigns as emergency guidance shifts daily—then bombs still fall. Even UN facilities haven’t escaped the onslaught.
Despite global calls for ceasefires and corridors for civilians, aid deliveries remain scarce, and fear deepens. For many Gazans, the promise of refuge is just another gamble in a conflict that shows no sign of stopping. 🌪️
We’ll keep you updated with real stories from Gaza, share insights on the humanitarian crisis, and spotlight efforts to bring relief—and maybe, just maybe, lasting peace. ✌️
