 Israel is playing even more dirty to force people out of Jabalia

For the 13th consecutive day, the Israeli occupation forces are carrying
out a ground incursion and air strikes in northern Gaza. Jabalia, Beit
Hanoun and Beit Lahiya are all being targeted, although the occupation
forces are concentrating their attacks in Jabalia refugee camp, where they
are cutting-off all humanitarian aid.

The Israelis have also issued orders for the three partially operational
hospitals in the area to evacuate patients and staff. The staff, however,
have all refused to leave despite the lack of fuel which is necessary for
ambulances and operation theatres in all three hospitals to continue
working. Moreover, the Palestinians in the area are being starved by the
occupation regime.

Oxfam and 37 other aid groups confirmed this in a statement on Tuesday.

Several days after the onset of the latest incursion, Israeli and
international media started to speak about the plan laid down by retired
Israeli General Giora Eiland. This would see military pressure put on the
Palestinians as well as them being starved in order to force them out of
northern Gaza.

The Israeli intention is to evacuate all northern parts of the Gaza Strip
and then annex the territory under the smokescreen of creating a military
buffer zone. The creation of the heavily-fortified Netzarim Corridor is
meant to be the barrier between the displaced Palestinians in the south and
their homes which have been destroyed by Israel in the north.

To summarize, on the ground the Israeli occupation forces are carrying out
ground and air strikes and imposing a tight siege on Jabalia. The besieged
Palestinian residents are being starved, while the remaining three
hospitals have been ordered to evacuate patients and staff. The world is
condemning these acts and calling for humanitarian aid to be allowed in,
especially into northern Gaza.

The apartheid occupation state of Israel is ignoring the condemnations and
continuing with its ethnic cleansing operations by killing civilians or
otherwise forcing them out of their homes. Whole residential blocks are
then being destroyed by the occupation army, sometimes over the heads of
the residents who refuse to leave their homes.

The Israeli regime claims to have allowed between 20 and 50 truckloads of
aid to enter northern Gaza on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Aid agencies working in the area told local media on Thursday that the
Israeli claims are simply not true.

The simple fact is that, unless world leaders carry out real action against
the occupation state and stop this ethnic cleansing which is happening as I
write, and persuade the US to end its unconditional support for Israel’s
genocide and other war crimes, the Palestinians in Gaza are facing the
worst disaster in their history.

This is happening in real time on social media; the first livestreamed
genocide, ever. Israel is playing even more dirty than usual to force the
Palestinians out of Jabalia and the rest of northern Gaza. Nobody can ever
claim that they didn’t know what was going on.
