Displacement from Beit Lahiya continues

Published

Dozens of Palestinians are being forced to leave their homes in Beit Lahiya as Israeli attacks on northern Gaza intensify, Al Jazeera reports according to Reuters.

The Israeli army sent tanks into Beit Lahiya and the nearby towns of Beit Hanoon and Jabalia, the largest of the Gaza Strip’s eight historic refugee camps, last month after isolating all three areas from Gaza City.

Hamas wants a deal that ends the conflict, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is stalling, despite near-daily demonstrations protesting his stance and calling for a deal to end the fighting and bring back the captives.
