Thousands Displaced as Israeli Forces Ramp Up Operations in Central Gaza
On Monday, thousands of Palestinians were forced to flee their homes in the central Gaza Strip following new Israeli evacuation orders, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian situation. This mass displacement has concentrated displaced populations in Deir al-Balah, the only major city in the central enclave not yet overrun by Israeli forces.
The Islamist group Hamas, which governs Gaza, has accused the Israeli government of undermining cease-fire negotiations by imposing new conditions on a longstanding truce proposal. These accusations came after the latest round of talks mediated by international parties, including Qatar and Egypt.

Truth and understanding
The Media Line's intrepid correspondents are in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Pakistan providing first-person reporting.
They all said they cover it.
We see it.
We report with just one agenda: the truth.
Israeli military operations have intensified, with forces capturing nearly the entire Gaza Strip after nearly 10 months of conflict. The military reported that their fighter jets had targeted 35 locations in Gaza in the past day alone, engaging in fierce battles with Hamas and Islamic Jihad fighters in southern regions like Khan Yunis and Rafah.
The conflict’s humanitarian impact has been severe, with hundreds of thousands converging on Deir al-Balah to escape the fighting. The overcrowding has led to desperate conditions, with limited shelter and resources for the influx of displaced individuals.
