87.8% of the Gaza Strip is subjectto forced displacement orders or has become a militarized area of the Israeli army, as reported on Monday by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in a statement.

In addition, Israeli Army tanks have attacked the Al Baraka neighbourhood of Deir al-Balah, and the armed forces have called for a forced evacuation of that neighbourhood to begin thefirst Israeli ground offensive against that city in central Gaza.
