Still faced with bombings, on Sunday October 15, the population of Gaza was called into exile before the launch of a vast counter-offensive. According to the UN, a million Gazans have left their homes.
The bombed areas are still smoking in the sky of Gaza on Sunday October 15. In places, neighborhoods are wiped off the map. Around the enclave, Israeli troops are preparing, a signal of an imminent ground offensive on northern Gaza. It is currently, according to the army, delayed for humanitarian reasons. Already nearly a million civilians have evacuated to the South. Where they go, the situation is catastrophic. Stores are running out of food.
The only exit door remains closed
“I have seven homeless families at home. I’ve been here since 7 a.m.“, deplores a woman. Israel ensures that it is restoring water distribution in the South. Here, Israeli strikes continue, as in the city of Rafah, where refugees are piling up. “They randomly bomb innocent and unarmed people. What do they have to do with war?” asks a woman. Further away are displaced people of foreign nationalities, who are also trying to leave Gaza. The only exit door, managed by Egypt, remains closed.
