Just hours after a fragile seven-day truce expired, explosions and sirens echoed across Gaza again as Israel and Hamas resumed fighting. For displaced families fleeing to Khan Younis, the renewed violence feels like a cruel reset button on their survival nightmare. 🚨
During the brief ceasefire, CGTN captured heart-wrenching scenes of Palestinians migrating south via Salah al-Din Road—a highway now synonymous with trauma. Families carried whatever they could salvage, while children stared blankly at the chaos around them. ‘We thought peace might last,’ one father told our crew. ‘We were wrong.’
In a race against time, 31 premature babies were evacuated from Al Shifa Hospital’s rubble, their tiny bodies swaddled in blankets for a perilous journey to safety. Meanwhile, overcrowded UN shelters burst at the seams, with hundreds crammed into makeshift tents. ‘We’re fighting for basics: water, food, dignity,’ shared a volunteer at a Rafah camp.
As detainees’ families plead for answers, the world watches—again—as hope dissolves into rubble. 🌍💔
