Israel plans mass expulsion of Palestinians as bodies keep emerging from rubble
Israel is pushing ahead with plans for what it has falsely called the “voluntary” expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza, seizing on President Donald Trump’s controversial remarks about the U.S. “taking over” the war-ravaged territory.
Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has ordered the military to draft a strategy allowing Gazans to leave by land, air, or sea to any country willing to accept them.
Meanwhile, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening.
Rescue teams recovered 28 more bodies, and medics warn many victims remain trapped in the ruins.
The ceasefire that took effect on Jan. 19 has not stopped the suffering, with 562 bodies pulled from the debris since then.
Adding to the humanitarian catastrophe, torrential rains and sewage floods have swamped shelters for displaced families.
Gaza authorities describe a looming disaster, with 88% of infrastructure destroyed, including sewage systems, hospitals, and public services.
With electricity and fuel shortages crippling relief efforts, UNICEF warns that at least 600 aid trucks must enter Gaza daily to meet the bare minimum of humanitarian needs.
Israel has killed 47,583 people and injured 111,633 others, according to the enclave’s Health Ministry.
The Palestinian Government Media Office has updated the death toll to at least 61,709 people, saying thousands of missing people are now presumed dead.
