There are some people here in Gaza who see this recognition as a very significant move, eventually putting more pressure on Israel to end the offensive, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Deir el-Balah, Gaza.

But the vast majority of displaced Palestinians are just busy trying to find basic necessities — food, water and medical care.

There is also worry, particularly among Palestinians traumatised by the constant displacement, that Israel’s military will retaliate to the recognitions by attacking more civilians in Gaza.

This is because every time something happens at the international level, we see a surge in attacks here. So the fear right now is real, the panic is real.
