From "
ALL EYES ON RAFAH"
to "
RAFAH IS GONE" 🇵🇸
At the same time, Israel has stepped up its military operations in Palestine with Rafah which was once the main place people fled to in the south is now largely under Israeli control after expanded ground offensives. Israeli officials say the goal is to dismantle Hamas infrastructure and the remaining fighters believed to be operating there. Palestinian authorities and humanitarian groups describe heavy destruction, large-scale displacement, and serious shortages of food, water, and medical supplies as the fighting continues. Rafah which had sheltered hundreds of thousands of displaced civilians earlier in the war has been hit hard, adding to the already severe humanitarian situation in Palestine.
