Hind Khoudary, a journalist in Gaza, says Palestinians in the besieged enclave who are trying to mobilise towards the south of the strip were stuck as two main roads connecting the area were shut down.

In a video posted on X, Khoudary said: “We are trying to mobilise from the middle area to the south but it is very dangerous and everyone is telling us not to do that. We are stuck, we are surrounded by Israeli tanks and endless gunshots and explosions.”

“All night long the airstrikes have not stopped, the gun bullets have not stopped shelling, the drones, the house is shaking all night long,” she said.
