Hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians have taken shelter in al-Mawasi who had followed Israel’s forced evacuation orders soon after the assault broke out in October 2023. Al-Mawasi witnessed several deadly Israeli attacks, including a devastating attack on July 13, when Israeli air strikes on displaced Palestinians killed at least 88 and wounded 289 others, according to Gaza's health ministry.Scenes document the destruction caused by the Israeli occupation after targeting a tent sheltering displaced people, murdering five Palestinians in the Mawasi area, previously claimed by the Israeli occupation as a ‘safe zone’, in Khan Younis, where the bombing left a hole. pic.twitter.com/BaeZ7EvMpD
