Airstrikes have been frequent in the area, including a barrage that covered Israeli special forces as they rescued two hostages held by Hamas in the city. Aerial bombardments reportedly killed over 100 people.
" We are witnessing massacres every day. People cannot believe that they will have to evacuate for the fourth or even fifth time ," Harara said, adding that the 55-square-kilometer area of Rafah where people have gathered has no infrastructure. enough to support them there.
