The Israeli Army has intensified its attacks on Gaza City in recent hours, mainly on housing, and has left more than 6,000 Gazans without shelter, who will now have to flee to the south of the Strip, according to the Civil Defence spokesman and local sources.

"The occupation (Israel) warned (that it would bomb) some buildings, but it also attacked other houses that were not threatened, resulting in several deaths and injuries. More than 6,000 citizens were left homeless following attacks on their homes," said Gazat rescue team spokesman Mahmud Basal.



According to the EFE agency, there was also intense smoke this morning after eight robots loaded with explosives exploded behind the University Faculty of Applied Sciences in Tel al Hawa. Tel al Hawa is the southern suburb of Gaza City. In addition, heavy artillery bombardments have been carried out against areas in the south and west. These areas are inhabited by displaced citizens.

According to military estimates, some 280,000 Gazatis have left the city of Gaza under siege and under threat of military invasion towards Al Mawasi in the south, where the Gazatis are piling up in camps in poor health and lack of water while being bombed by Israel.
