GAZA, (Palestine Foundation Information Center), A new wave of displacement has swept through eastern parts of the Zeitoun neighborhood in southeastern Gaza City after Israeli drones reportedly dropped explosive-laden boxes onto residential buildings near the so-called Yellow Line and detonated several of them, spreading fear and panic among residents.
A PIC correspondent reported Friday that Israeli drones dropped several booby-trapped boxes onto homes in areas close to the Yellow Line before detonating some of them, prompting families to flee their homes for fear of further attacks or destruction.
The incidents have raised concerns among residents about an expansion of Israeli attacks in the neighborhood’s eastern areas, particularly amid continued military operations and explosions targeting residential buildings and other structures despite the ceasefire agreement.
The latest displacement comes amid ongoing reported Israeli violations of the ceasefire, including bombardment, gunfire and the demolition of buildings, threatening civilian lives and undermining efforts to restore stability and enable displaced families to return home.
These developments have compounded the suffering of Palestinians attempting to return to their neighborhoods and settle in what remains of their homes after repeated waves of displacement during the war.
Residents now face the threat of being forced to flee once again, with no effective guarantees against further attacks on their communities.
Continued explosions and military activity near the Yellow Line have reinforced widespread insecurity, preventing residents from returning safely and rebuilding stable lives.
Large areas of Gaza remain vulnerable to bombardment, demolitions and Israeli military threats, leaving displaced families uncertain about when they will be able to return to their homes without fear.
