Palestinian Civil Defence spokesperson Mahmoud Basal spoke to about the situation in northern Gaza. He said that several areas in the northern Gaza Strip are being subjected to continuous Israeli bombardment and accused Israel of “deliberately displacing citizens from this region”. “About 2,300 people have been killed or are missing since the start of the Israeli military operation in northern Gaza in early October,” he said. “The shortage of fuel is a major problem for rescue crews, severely hindering their ability to reach those in need.”
