Israel’s invasion of northern Gaza escalated last week when Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) trapped around 100,000 civilians inside the Jabalia refugee camp, as well as inside the nearby Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun refugee areas.

Now being referred to as an “extermination zone,” this area of northern Gaza where IDF airstrikes and bombings left all these people stranded has no more access to food or medical supplies. Israel’s three-week-long assault, which is still ongoing, forced emergency services that were in the area previously to flee, leaving behind hordes of helpless people who are now sitting ducks for the IDF to exterminate.

Israel claims that the escalation is necessary to capture around 11 “suspected Hamas militants” who had previously, or so we are told, been in hiding at the Kamal Adwan hospital in Jabalia. Officials at that hospital say that Israeli forces detained staff members and Palestinian refugees alike in hot pursuit of Hamas.

Since the very beginning of all this, Israel has claimed, like it always does, that the reason for so many civilian deaths is because Hamas militants are hiding out in hospitals, residential complexes and other areas where civilians live and congregate. Many are now challenging this claim, arguing that it is a mere excuse for the IDF to continue mass-slaughtering innocents.

IDF “besieging schools … other shelters housing displaced families”

The airstrikes that preceded this latest mess in northern Gaza killed a total of five people, bringing the official death toll in Gaza to around 43,000 people. An Israeli drone also struck a group of people in the Beit Lahia area, injuring several and killing at least one.

In the eastern Gaza City neighborhood of Shujaiya, another Israeli drone struck a group of people, killing three and injuring three others. This was coupled with another raid in central Gaza that killed at least one while injuring several others near the Nuseirat refugee camp.

“Israeli forces were besieging schools and other shelters housing displaced families, ordering them out before rounding up men and ushering women and children out of the area towards Gaza City and the south,” residents of North Gaza told Reuters.

Only a select few Palestinian families obeyed the Israeli army’s orders that they flee to southern Gaza, with most of them fleeing to Gaza City instead. They did this because there is widespread fear that Israel will never again allow them to return to their homes if they end up south of the IDF-controlled Netzarim Corridor.

Some of the fleeing families wrote their death notices in anticipation of a likely demise, stating that they prefer to die rather than be displaced in accordance with Israel’s demands.

“While the world is busy with Lebanon and new nonsense talk about a few days of ceasefire [in Gaza], the Israeli occupation is wiping out north Gaza and displacing its people,” a Jabalia resident told Reuters via a chat app.

“[But] neither [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu nor Eiland will be able to take us out of northern Gaza.”

Israeli soldiers are likewise spilling the beans that Israel is carrying out a sinister plan to forcibly expel Palestinian civilians for good from northern Gaza so it can be annexed into so-called “Greater Israel.” That plan is called the “General’s Plan,” and it is credited to a retired IDF general named Giora Eiland who used to also head up Israel’s National Security Council.

“There are so many ex-IDF soldiers and generals now working as ‘journalists’ in the western mainstream media,” a commenter noted about how Eiland and others like him are the ones reporting on and pushing their narrative through western media.
