In Gaza, where the scarcity of ambulances and emergency personnel presents an ongoing challenge, conducting rescue operations becomes a formidable task. These grim circumstances in Gaza is a result of Israel's response to Hamas' unprovoked attack on Saturday. The airstrikes by Israel Defence Forces (IDF) were initiated in response to rocket attacks by the Palestinian terrorist group, which had targeted civilians near the border areas.
The situation is poised to deteriorate further, with the Israeli military issuing orders for a mass evacuation of a million Gazans, directing them to head southwards. Their rationale is the belief that Hamas operatives have taken refuge in tunnels beneath Gaza City, prompting warnings of significant military operations within the city in the imminent days.
In response to these unfolding developments, the United Nations has shifted its operations to southern Gaza. This relocation follows the organization's stern warning regarding the "devastating humanitarian consequences" that could materialize if a large-scale movement of people becomes necessary.
Gaza's precarious geographic location, sharing borders with Egypt to the south and Israel to the north and east, underscores its status as a pivotal focal point of the ongoing conflict, with its inhabitants tragically caught in the crossfire.
