RAMALLAH, Thursday, May 16, 2024 (WAFA) – ActionAid International said that more than 75% of the Gaza Strip's 2.2 million citizens have been displaced from their homes since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on October 7th.
The organization explained in a statement issued on Thursday on the occasion of the 76th anniversary of the Nakba, that most civilians had to be displaced several times amid very dangerous conditions with no hope of finding any safe place to live.
ActionAid pointed out that civilians in the Gaza Strip are facing a new wave of displacement after the occupation forces issued evacuation orders for parts of Rafah, which is inhabited by more than a million people, as more than 450,000 civilians were displaced from the city, according to UNRWA, and yet there is no safe place to go.
"There is no space, resources or infrastructure available to accommodate them," ActionAid said.
The organization pointed out that about 4,000 civilians in the West Bank were forced to flee their homes last year, due to colonists' violence, movement restrictions, and demolitions.
