| 'They killed everything': Israel's army pounds Shujaiya neighborhood for fifth day |
| 2024-07-02 |
| [NEWARAB] For the fifth day in a row, the Israeli army continues its extensive military operation in the Shujaiya neighbourhood east of Gaza City, with Palestinian fighters putting up a stiff resistance. "It was terrible! We're all dead now! The rigor mortis is so painful!" Black smoke billows into the sky of the neighbourhood as a result of indiscriminate Israeli attacks on hundreds of remaining Palestinian homes in Shujaiya, according to locals in the territory. Speaking to The New Arab, residents in the area spoke of how the Israeli army "insists on destroying" what remains of their neighbourhood, is not achieving its so-called goal (of destroying Hamas), and rather is seeking "to end what remains of life in the area and to prevent Palestinians from returning and living there." "My hovel and connected tunnel were destroyed!" On 27 June 2024, the Israeli army launched a surprise ground military attack on Shujaiya despite Israeli forces withdrawing from northern Gaza in January after having claimed to have "dismantled" Hamas's command structure. The new operation is the third since the beginning Israel's war on the besieged coastal enclave. The Israel army claims it is eliminating tunnels "that were missed during the first time through". It also admitted that Hamas is regrouping. |
