Palestinians fleeing the south and those still in the north are rapidly running out of food and water. There is no more electricity and those with fuel-fired generators will soon be living in total blackout. Internet access, through which residents communicate their plight to the world, is also shrinking.
Mohamed Hamed, 36, from Gaza City, moved south to Nuseirat, a refugee camp about five kilometers northeast of Deir al-Balah, which was said to be safe.
Hamed fled with 30 family members, including his extended family, his four children and his wife, who is more than eight months pregnant.
" In this situation, we are afraid that she will be born and we would not know where to go ," he told CNN.
The family has no access to medical care and is housed in an apartment.
"There is no electricity, no water. The bakeries are working, but these are their last hours, as the fuel they need is running out ," he said, adding that the food we have could last us a day or two.
Not everyone in northern Gaza has heeded the Israel Defense Forces' call to move south. Palestinian journalist Hashem Al-Saudi, 33, and his family have only moved from east to west of Gaza City.
Residents are forced to leave their homes to fill water tanks, he told CNN by phone, which puts them at risk of being hit by Israeli rockets.
Al-Saudi said not only do they have nowhere to stay if they move south, but the road itself is unsafe. " Even those who moved south were hit by airstrikes ," he told CNN.
CNN has found and verified five videos from the scene of a major explosion Friday along a civilian road south of Gaza City, which Israel said would be safe by the next day. CNN has reached out to the IDF for comment on any airstrikes in the same location.
" The situation is much worse than what you see on television, the streets are filled with rubble and the smell of blood ," he said. Many bodies remain unidentified and corpses are being stored in refrigerators not designed for storing human remains, Al-Saudi said.
