As Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip continue to escalate, displaced residents in a recently attacked tent camp in western Gaza City said the attacks appear aimed at forcibly displacing the Palestinian population. Located in the western part of Gaza City, these tents were attacked on Tuesday night when the Israeli military fired four missiles at the site, killing seven civilians. Mohammed Hassan lives near the tent camp. He said he fled to western Gaza City with his six children, following Israeli military orders in hopes of finding a safe place, but instead was met with relentless airstrikes by Israeli forces. The Israeli military is exerting pressure on civilians in the Gaza Strip, forcing them to move south in order to advance its plan to establish a so-called "humanitarian zone" in Rafah, southern Gaza. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz proposed the plan on July 7. Initially, the plan aims to relocate 600,000 Palestinians from the previously designated "humanitarian area" in al-Mawasi, near Khan Younis, to this new zone. Ultimately, it is intended to hold the entire population of Gaza, allowing entry but no exit. Civilians caught in the conflict believe the plan masks Israel's true intention to forcibly displace Palestinians from the Gaza Strip. Shotlist: Gaza City, Gaza Strip - July 16, 2025: 1.
