United Nations: 150,000 displaced people in central Gaza “have no place to go”

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said on Thursday that 150,000 Palestinians forced by Israel to emigrate from the central areas of the Gaza Strip “have no place to go.”


This came in a blog post published by the UN agency on its account on the “X” platform.


The agency added, "The evacuation order recently issued by the Israeli authorities causes continued forced displacement in the central parts of Gaza."


It stressed that "more than 150,000 people, including young people, children, women with infants, the elderly and the disabled, have nowhere to go."


It noted that "most of these displaced people had to move for the second time during the war."


UNRWA also included photos of Palestinians who left their homes and were displaced due to Israeli attacks.


Regarding the difficulties facing Gaza residents, UNRWA said, “The only hope remaining is a ceasefire for humanitarian reasons.”


On December 22, the Israeli army asked residents of the Bureij camp and other areas in the central Gaza Strip to evacuate their homes immediately and head to the city of Deir al-Balah.


Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adraee said, through his account on the “X” platform: “To the residents of Al-Bureij Camp and the neighborhoods of Badr, the North Coast, Al-Nuzha, Al-Zahra, Al-Buraq, Al-Rawda, and Al-Safa in the areas south of Wadi Gaza: For your safety, you must move immediately to the shelter in Deir Al-Balah.”
