Israel has ceased designating humanitarian zones in Gaza since resuming strikes in March 2023, raising concerns for civilians in previously protected areas. Over 70% of Gaza is now classified as evacuation or no-go zones, with reports of airstrikes hitting areas like al-Mawasi, where many displaced Palestinians sought refuge, resulting in casualties, including women and children. The UN warns of a worsening humanitarian crisis, with Gaza facing famine, as officials criticize Israel for using humanitarian aid as leverage amidst the ongoing conflict.
