The people of Gaza, and the north in particular, are still suffering as a result of their steadfastness and refusal to be displaced. These are the people of Beit Hanoun, who are being forced to flee under threat of arms, to an unknown destination in a fully-fledged crime on the media channels, and despite all of this, no one can stop Israel’s crimes.

Day 39 of Israel's third ground invasion of the North Gaza governorate.

Less than 24 hours after allowing no more than 3 aid trucks of flour and water to enter the city, the IDF besieged Beit Hanoun and the shelters therein early morning and ordered people to leave on foot southwards. (sources: 1). The siege was preceded by massacres of two families, including that of journalist Hossam Shabat.

Hossam, a native of Beit Hanoun stated that Beit Hanoun "was the first city targeted by Israeli occupation forces to be wiped out. It had a population of 70,000; now only 3,000 are left. Israeli forces have been trying to ethnically cleanse it for over a year now. They just invaded it again, surrounded the remaining schools, and are forcing the residents to leave under the threat of snipers and bombs."
