In a devastating turn, Israeli-declared 'safe zones' in Gaza have left Palestinians trapped in a cycle of danger and despair. According to Gaza authorities, over 65,000 lives have been lost and 166,000 injured since October 2023 due to relentless strikes—numbers that paint a grim reality of the ongoing conflict. 🩸💔
Humanitarian groups report that even designated shelters and aid centers have become targets, with bombings turning supposed havens into scenes of chaos. CGTN’s Elina al-Yazji, reporting from the ground, describes a landscape where hope is as scarce as clean water. "Families run from one shattered street to another, but safety feels like a mirage," she shared.
Despite global calls for ceasefire, aid deliveries remain perilous. Distribution points are overwhelmed, with residents risking their lives for basic supplies. The UN warns of a "catastrophic collapse" in healthcare and food access, while the world watches. 🌍🆘
As the war drags on, questions grow: Can diplomacy outpace destruction? For now, Gaza’s people cling to survival—one day at a time.
