GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Thousands of displaced Palestinian citizens resumed on Wednesday morning their trek back to their homes in northern Gaza Strip.
The PIC reporter said that the citizens carried with them whatever they can carry of their simple belongings on the 7-kilometer road to their homes in Gaza City and the northern governorates of Gaza.
The Gaza municipality continued its efforts to open roads and remove the debris to facilitate the return of the displaced and their movement.
The Government Media Office (GMO), for its part, said that 80% of the displaced have returned to their homes in northern Gaza over the past couple of days.
The GMO said that it warned the returnees of the Israeli army’s unexploded ordnance.
It said that the available tents do not meet the needs of the returning citizens as their homes were destroyed and are in urgent need of shelter, noting that no heavy equipment had yet entered the enclave to help in removing the rubble of destroyed buildings and retrieve the bodies of martyrs.
