The Israeli army is likely to carry out a fresh massacre in the northern #Gaza Strip town of #Beit_Lahia, initiating a new round of forced evacuation orders against its estimated 50,000 citizens who remained in the area. The UN and other international parties need to take immediate action to protect Palestinian civilians.
After declaring the town of Beit Lahia to be a “dangerous combat zone” and threatening to “act with extreme force,” the Israeli army started to launch heavy air and artillery attacks on the town, followed by fresh evacuation orders.
The Israeli army set up shelters for the town of Beit Lahia’s residents to evacuate towards known shelters in blocks number 1770, 1766, but these were originally destroyed areas that are unfit for any form of life and lack water supply as well as functioning sewage systems.
