Maha Hussaini, the strategy director at The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, has said Israeli drones “are flying at low altitudes over central and eastern Gaza City” with intimidating messages, Al Jazeera reports.

Hussaini said the recorded messages “threaten residents and speak of a second and third Nakba”, referring to the mass displacement of Palestinians from their land when Israel was created in 1948.

The Euro-Med, a rights group, also shared a recording of the messages in a post on X.
