By Palestine Chronicle Staff  

After telling thousands of displaced Palestinians in the Khan Yunis area that a ‘safe passage’ has been opened, the Israeli military bombed a convoy of escaping refugees on their way to Deir Al-Balah. Many were killed and wounded.

Nowhere is safe in Gaza, even nearly two weeks after the ICJ ordered Israel to ensure the safety of civilians in its ongoing war on the Strip. All of Gaza was bombed overnight, with most of the bombing focusing on Gaza City and Khan Yunis.

According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, 27,585 Palestinians have been killed, and 66,978 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza starting on October 7.
