Rights teams criticise Israeli transfer to displace Palestinians to a tiny and barren space.
Another wave of Palestinians have been pressured from their houses in Gaza. This time, to a small slice of land within the south designated by Israel as a “safe zone”.
But circumstances in al-Mawasi are bleak, and for these dwelling in its makeshift camps, bitterly chilly.
International assist organisations don’t recognise the power and are usually not offering companies there.
And within the final two months, Israeli forces have bombed areas the place they ordered folks to take shelter.
Those in al-Mawasi say there isn’t any assure they are going to be spared Israeli bombings and air strikes.
So, how can what Israel calls a “safe zone” defend civilians from struggling and assaults? And might it turn out to be what one UNICEF official has described as one other “zone of death”?
