Israel’s intense bombing campaign has not stopped for the past few days and it is concentrated more in the central area. The Israeli military, within the past few days, withdrew from the area and it has become a major target of relentless air strikes and artillery shelling.
Deir el-Balah, an area that has been largely designated as safe in the initial weeks of the war, has become a site of those relentless air strikes.
Thousands of people who were ordered to leave the northern part of the Gaza city mainly reside here.
The attacks, mainly targeting the western part of the city, have caused a great deal of damage and destruction to multiple homes as well as public facilities.
Almost 30 people were killed in the air strike in the Deir el-Balah city with tens of injuries reported. Many wounded could not be attended to immediately as a result of this situation and could die on the floor of the hospital.
