The Israeli attacks have dropped in northern Gaza as of the early hours of this morning compared with the past few days. Part of the reason is the tactical withdrawal of the Israeli military, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Deir al-Balah, Gaza.
“To put things in context, the Israeli army operates aggressively for a few days in areas and then pulls back in a tactical move to come back later. This is largely noticed by the residents who went to inspect their homes and other buildings.
“In the last 24 days of the army operation in northern Gaza, close to 1,000 people have been killed, according to health authorities. The majority of these victims were women and children — the same pattern we see across Gaza.
“There are also people missing and trapped under the rubble,” he said.
