Israel Hamas Attack: The war between Israel and Hamas has been going on for the last 11 days. So far, more than 4000 people have lost their lives in the war from both sides, while thousands are injured. 1,400 Israelis have lost their lives and about 3,500 are injured in Hamas attacks. At the same time, 2800 Palestinians have died in the Israeli army action and about 11 thousand people are badly injured.
The war between Israel and Hamas started on 7 October. When fighters of the Palestinian extremist group Hamas fired rockets at Israel. After this, Israel retaliated in Gaza and launched rapid attacks on Hamas.
However, Israel ordered ordinary Palestinians to vacate the Gaza Strip so that its army could enter Gaza. In such a situation, the question arises that if the Palestinians leave Gaza, in which country will they take refuge and by what route will they go out of Gaza.
With which country does Gaza share its border?
Gaza’s border meets Egypt on one side and the Mediterranean Sea on the other side. In such a situation, the people of Palestine will have to reach Egypt through Rafah border to take shelter. Rafah is on the border of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. Apart from this, people can also go out of Gaza through Erez, Israel’s only commercial freight junction in southern Gaza, but people will reach Jerusalem from the border of Erez.
People gathered at Rafah border
This is the reason why people are reaching Rafah crossing in large numbers. However, due to Israeli shelling, there is a fluctuating situation of activity on the Rafah border connecting Egypt with the Gaza Strip and the evacuation of people from there remains quite challenging.
Israel had given orders to leave Gaza
On October 13, the Israel Defense Forces issued a notice to northern Gaza residents to evacuate the area, after which the United Nations warned Israel that this would have devastating humanitarian consequences and that it was not possible to move people on such a large scale. . At the same time, the Israeli army claims that the Gazans have vacated half of the area in the north.
Gaza under control of Hamas
Egypt controlled Gaza from 1948 to 1967. However, after victory in the 1967 Six-Day War against Egypt, Jordan and Syria, Israel gained control and annexed the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. In 2004, Israel completely gave up its occupation of the Gaza Strip. At present Gaza is under the control of Hamas.
