Raghda Hamdan to Al-Quds: The Islamic University is the last shelter, and we will not leave it except to return to Beit Hanoun.

Ramadan Al-Attar to Al-Quds: We were forced to leave school quickly and spend the night in the street for fear of being targeted.

Abdul Fattah Darwish to Al-Quds: I was evacuated to a hospital bed with the help of my relatives, fearing a repeat of what happened at the European Union.

On Wednesday evening, the Israeli occupation army issued evacuation notices for several areas west of Gaza City. These areas were the areas to which residents from the northern Gaza Strip, specifically Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia, had fled.

According to the evacuation map, the areas the occupation army has demanded evacuation from are in western Gaza, specifically Al-Shifa Hospital, the Islamic University, a school block in the Al-Nasr neighborhood, and several schools in the Al-Rimal neighborhood. All of these centers are housing displaced persons.

Dozens of wounded and sick people were evacuated from Al-Shifa Hospital, amidst public fears that the army might bomb the hospital, as happened recently at the Gaza European Hospital, which was bombed by Israeli aircraft with explosive belts, killing dozens.

The streets of the western part of Gaza City were also crowded with displaced people who had fled the threatened areas for areas the occupation claims are safe. Most of these displaced people left behind whatever scraps of food and belongings they had left behind, and were forced to spend the night in streets teeming with stray animals, in cold and frightening conditions.

Where do we go?

Raghda Hamdan, who was displaced from Beit Hanoun to the Islamic University, west of Gaza City, told Al-Quds that she will not be displaced again, even if the occupation army attacks the university or its surroundings. She added, "It is enough that we have been displaced 13 times so far. The time for displacement is over, and we will not allow this occupation to control our destinies."

She continued: "Most of the displaced people at the university decided not to leave and to remain there until they return to Beit Hanoun, with the university being the final shelter." She noted that the occupation army, just as it confronts the resilience of the Gazans, surrenders to that resilience.

The occupation's allegations are false.

As for Ramadan al-Attar, a displaced person who fled Beit Lahia to one of the schools included in the Israeli army's evacuation notices, he told Al-Quds that all of the occupation's allegations are false and untrue. The people in the shelters are displaced people who came from the northern Gaza Strip to the western Gaza City.

Al-Attar explained that he was forced to leave school immediately and spend the night in the street with his wife and five children, because, as he put it, he was a cunning enemy who could betray him at any moment and turn his children's bodies into pieces.

The conditions of the sick and wounded are tragic.

Patient Abdel Fattah Darwish said he was evacuated to a hospital bed and was pulled out by some relatives for fear that the Israeli occupation army would bomb the hospital. He then moved away from the hospital's perimeter and headed to another hospital, noting that a state of confusion gripped all the wounded and patients in the hospital.

Darwish confirmed to Al-Quds that the condition of the patients during the evacuation of the hospital was tragic, and that the cause was the massacre at the European Hospital, which the occupation army bombed without prior warning, killing dozens inside and around it. What happened at the European Hospital is beyond the human mind's comprehension or imagination.
