Water, electricity and food cuts: Gaza is under total siege, Tuesday October 10. This is what the Israeli Minister of Defense promised, in addition to the incessant bombings, under which the two million inhabitants live.

Ambulances parade past a hospital in the Gaza Strip. In the vehicle, three young children were injured. One of them is hit in the head. In images, an explosion hits Gaza, and a thick cloud of smoke rises. Residential buildings were razed after further bombings. Some residents fled in the middle of the night, only to find their homes completely destroyed. “I fled at 1 a.m. with my wife and my child. We took refuge in a building, which was also targeted. Everything was exploding,” says a man.

Total seat

THEs strikes have intensified in Gaza, since the announcement of a total siege of the Palestinian territory by Israeli forces on Monday October 9. Neighborhoods are reduced to ashes, and emergency services are overwhelmed. Civilians must remove the wounded from the rubble themselves. The human toll continues to rise. The Israeli army announced that it had more or less regained control of the border with Gaza.
