(Israel, 17th) Israel has recently launched a new round of offensives in the Gaza Strip, attempting to seize control of Gaza City. On the 16th, the Israeli military stated that from the 17th, it would provide Gaza residents with tents and other shelter equipment, and will relocate them from the war zone to the southern part of the Gaza Strip "to ensure their safety."
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said on the 17th that before launching the offensive, arrangements would be made to evacuate local residents from Gaza City to so-called "safe zones." He described Gaza City as the last stronghold of the Palestinian armed group Hamas.
A few days ago, Israel indicated its intent to launch a new round of offensives to seize control of the largest city center in the Gaza Strip—northern Gaza City. This plan has sparked international concern about the fate of the roughly 2.2 million residents.
The Israeli military stated that the aforementioned shelter equipment would be inspected by the Israeli Ministry of Defense and then transported via the Kerem Shalom border crossing in southern Gaza by the United Nations and other international relief organizations.
Regarding Israel's plan to relocate people to southern Gaza, a spokesperson for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) expressed concern, saying that this move would only exacerbate the suffering of the people. However, he also acknowledged the urgent need for shelters and welcomed the renewed entry of tents and other shelter equipment into Gaza as permitted by Israel.
