Just in the past two days alone, over 100,000 Palestinians have been displaced from Deir al-Balah (source).

One hundred thousand. Since August 22 only.

Do you understand what this means or do you need a visual with a 100,000 dots each representing a human being that is being made to flee on foot to literally nowhere in the scorching heat?

Around 1.9 million displaced people in Gaza live within a 35 square kilometre area, since the so called "safe zone" in Gaza has shrunk down to only 11% of the whole strip. This roughly means that 60,000 humans are crammed within every 1 square kilometre while Israeli warplanes continue to hail US bombs down on them wherever they go.

Deir al-Balah is considered one of the last areas for people to evacuate to. That's where over a million displaced Palestinians have ended up as a last resort and now they're told to pack up and move again. Maha Alhusseini was saying that the area is so packed there is no space to set up one single additional tent.

So again, the question that's being repeatedly asked by Gazans is: where do we go?

The Gaza Strip's Ministry of Health has reported the first verified case of polio virus, highlighting the necessity for a widespread polio immunisation program. The ministry has worked with international organisations and the UNRWA to create a comprehensive plan. The program will target children under the age of ten, with one million and two hundred thousand doses distributed in collaboration with UNICEF. The ministry asks foreign organisations to act promptly to cease Israeli aggression and provide immediate medical assistance. It also advocates for the reconstruction of safe drinking water and sanitation systems, the proper disposal of medical waste, and unrestricted access to medical supplies.
