Location at an overview: UN: Half a million people in the Gaza Strip

The flared battles between Israel’s army and the Islamist Hamas in the Gaza Strip are increasingly fleeing. The number of Palestinians, which has been expelled since mid-March, has now risen on an estimated half a million, a spokeswoman for the United Nations in New York said, citing the UN Nothilfebüro (OCHA). Most recently, the UN had assumed around 400,000 displaced people.

Israel’s army regularly calls on Palestinians to leave certain areas in the sealed coastal area in which she wants to act militarily against Hamas. Overall, more than two million people live in the densely populated Gaza Strip.

There is a lack of food, water and medication

The UN spokeswoman said that there is no most fundamental remedies in the coastal area of ​​humanitarian care. Tents are no longer available, many families only received blankets and planning. Emergency accommodations are overcrowded, there is a lack of food, water and medication. For about one and a half months, Israel has no longer let vital humanitarian aid goods have been letting in the sealed coastal strips to increase the pressure on Hamas.

Since the beginning of the Gaza War after the Hamas massacre and other Islamist terrorists in Israel on October 7, 2023, around 90 percent of the residents of the Gaza Strip have been sold-many of them several times. In the course of a two -month ceasefire at the beginning of the year, many inland refugees returned to their home tart. However, Israel resumed its massive attacks in mid -March after no agreement with Hamas had been reached on the conditions for extending the fire break.

Netanyahu discusses the hostage question with his supporters

In the indirect negotiations between Israel and Hamas about another ceasefire, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the hostage question with the supporters and heads of the security authorities. The head of government ordered to continue working on the release of the hostages, said Netanyahu’s office. According to Israeli information, 24 living hostages and 35 corpses of abdomen are currently being captured in the Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, the Hamas media reports continue to examine the youngest Israeli proposal for the release of the remaining hostages and a new ceasefire. However, the positions are hardened. While the Palestinian terrorist organization insists that Israel withdraws from the Gaza Strip after the release of the last hostages and ends the war, the Israeli government wants to disarm Hamas and maintain permanent military presence in parts of the coastal area.

IAEA boss warns of attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities

Hamas, like the Hisbollah in Lebanon and the Huthi-Miliz in Yemen, is one of the allies of Iran, while the Israeli government can be in conflict with Tehran in particular on the support of the USA. In view of the threats from Washington against Iran, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, warns of attacks on nuclear facilities. “It was always our very clear position that attacks against nuclear institutions are unacceptable and that all problems are still worse,” said Grossi after a meeting with Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghtschi in Tehran.

Negotiations between the United States and Iran on a new nuclear agreement are to be continued next weekend. US President Donald Trump has threatened Iran with military consequences if there was no new agreement. Araghtschi recently signaled willingness to compromise and reiterated that Iran did not want to build any atomic bombs. However, a complete waiver of nuclear technology is out of the question and is therefore not negotiable.
