The Israeli army destroyed 50,000 housing units in northern Gaza

Head of the Municipal Emergency Committee in North Gaza, Naji Sarhan, said that the Israeli occupation army destroyed about 50,000 housing units and bulldozed the sewage networks and streets of most of the northern municipalities in the Gaza Strip.


Sarhan said in a media briefing on Sunday that 35 water wells, schools, and UNRWA facilities had been destroyed, adding that there was an imminent famine threatening the northern Gaza Strip.


The head of the Municipal Emergency Committee in northern Gaza announced that Jabalia and Beit Hanoun are areas affected by the ongoing Israeli bombing, calling on the United Nations and international organizations to intervene urgently and immediately.


On Friday, the Israeli army withdrew from the northern Gaza Strip after a 20-day military operation, leaving unprecedented widespread destruction, especially in the Jabalia camp.


Jabalia camp witnessed fierce battles between the Israeli army and Palestinian resistance factions, which targeted its invading forces with explosive devices, ambushes, and sniper operations.


For the eighth month in a row, the occupation continues its devastating war on the Gaza Strip, which has so far caused the death and injury of tens of thousands of Palestinians, most of them women and children, and famine and an unprecedented humanitarian and health crisis, according to international and international reports.
