Israeli Military Says It Controls 40% Of Gaza City Amid Worsening Bombardment

Use/Kaıro, September 4 (Reuters) – Israel controls 40% of the city of Gaza, a military spokesman ordered to leave behind the ruins of thousands of quiet Israel’s last progress, as it forces more Palestinians than the houses of the bombing.

Gaza Health officials said that Israel’s fire in the settlement has killed at least 53 people in Gaza, where Israeli forces are mostly advanced from the foreign suburbs and now a few kilometers (miles) from the city center.

Israeli military spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin, Zeitouun and Sheikh Radwan neighborhoods called a news conference “We continue to damage the infrastructure of Hamas. We keep 40% of the territory of Gaza,” he said. “The operation will continue to expand and concentrate in the coming days.”

“We will continue to follow Hamas everywhere,” he added that the task will only end when Israel’s remaining hostages return and Hamas will end when the rule ended.

Defrin, Ordu Chief of General Staff Eyal Zamir’in cabinet ministers, without a daily plan to impose military administration on Gaza, he said. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government’s far -right members want Israel to impose military government in Gaza and to establish settlements that Netanyahu has excluded so far.

On August 10, Israel started the attack in Gaza, Netanyahu, a plan to defeat Hamas militants in Gaza, where Israeli troops fought the most heavily in the first stage of the war.

The campaign led to international criticism due to the humanitarian crisis in the region, and has been an unusual concern in Israel, including tension accounts on the strategy between some military commanders and political leaders.

“This time, I don’t leave my house. Um Nader, a five -year -old mother of Gaza, told Reuters through a text message.

Residents said Israel’s Gaza City has bombed Zeitou, Sabra, Tufah and Shejaia regions and bombed them from the air. The tanks pushed to the eastern part of the Sheikh Radwan region in the northwest of the city center, destroyed the houses and caused fires in tent camps.

In a heavy bombardment in the Tufah neighborhood, medical officials said that five houses were damaged by the strikes that killed eight people and do dozens of more injured strikes.

Mahmoud Basal, the Civil Emergency Service Spokesman of the region, said, “Israel occupation, civilians in the Mashahra region of Tuffah neighborhood and a few houses aimed at gathering a few houses – a firefighter that completely destroyed the four buildings,” he said.

“Even if the occupation of Israel gives warnings, there are no places to host civilians; there is no alternative for people to go.”

There was no Israeli interpretation about these reports. The Israeli army said that it was active at the foot of the city to remove the tunnels of the militants and find weapons.

Most of the Gaza City was wasted in the first weeks of the war in October-November 2023. Before the war, there were about one million people living there, and it is believed that hundreds of thousands of people have returned to live among the remains, especially Israel ordered people from other regions and launched an attack elsewhere.

Israel, who now told civilians to leave Gaza City again for their safety, said 70,000 is going to the south. Palestinian officials say there are less than half of this number, and thousands of people are still on the way to the progress of Israel.

Amjad Al-Shawa, President of the Palestinian NGO Network, a coordinated umbrella group with the UN and international humanitarian organizations, said that displacement could even endanger the most vulnerable, including many children suffering from malnutrition.

“This will be the most dangerous displacement since the war began, Sha said Shawa. “It is a sign that people refuse to leave despite the bombing and killing.”

Palestinian and UN officials say that Israel is not safe in Gaza anywhere in Gaza, including areas where human regions set.

Health officials in Gaza, including 131 children, including 370 people, mostly in recent weeks of acute food famine caused by malnutrition and starvation, he says. Israel said that it has taken measures to improve human conditions in Gaza and has taken measures, including increasing assistance to the settlement area.

The War began on October 7, 2023 when the armed men led Hamas attacked Southern Israel, killed 1,200 people, most civilians, and took 251 hostages to Gaza.

According to local health officials, Israel’s attack has killed more than 63,000 Palestinians since then and left most of the region to ruins.

A ceasefire and 20 of them are still alive, the expectations of releasing the remaining 48 hostages seem to be dim.

Two Democratic US Senators – Chris Van Hollen and Jeff Merkley, after a week of journey to evaluate the situation in Gaza and the West Bank, told reporters: “Based on our conversations and observations, we have come with an unexplained result that the Netanyahu government has been made in Gaza.
