August 4, 2025, Gaza City, Gaza Strip, Palestinian Territory: Palestinian families who cannot find a place to stay in Gaza City are struggling to survive under difficult conditions in makeshift tents they have set up in Gaza City. As a result of more than 20 months of attacks by the Israeli army targeting settlements, hospitals, schools and public buildings in the Gaza Strip, nearly 90 percent of the population has been displaced. In the Gaza Strip, where approximately 2.3 million people live, most of the displaced Palestinians are trying to survive in damaged buildings or tents.

The Israeli Army has already confirmed that it controls 40% of the city of Gaza, following more than three weeks of offensive, continued bombings, including civilian homes. Moreover, Israeli military spokesman Effie Defrin has indicated that the operation will intensify in the coming days.

Defrine has specified that two brigades are fighting in the Zeitun neighbourhood and are carrying out further raids in Sheikh Radwan, north of the Gaza City.

According to Gaza health sources, at least 69 Gazatis have been killed by Israeli attacks on Thursday, 39 of them in the city of Gaza, while rescue work continues in the rubble of destroyed homes in search of potential victims buried by the rubble.

In addition, five other people have been killed and more than 50 injured in an attack in the Al Tuffah neighbourhood, including several minors, according to the Palestinian Civil Defence.
