TL;DR Summary

Israeli airstrikes have destroyed buildings and infrastructure across Gaza, shattering the perception of safe areas and leaving Palestinians with nowhere to seek refuge. The Israeli military dropped flyers warning residents to evacuate their homes, but many were already hit by airstrikes before the warnings were delivered. Israel has cut off deliveries of food, water, fuel, and electricity to Gaza, exacerbating the dire humanitarian situation. The UN reports that over 1,000 homes have been leveled, causing water shortages for over 650,000 people and destroying sewage systems. The rising human cost includes 447 children and 248 women among the 1,417 Palestinian dead. A ground assault is imminent, raising fears of brutal house-to-house fighting. Palestinians are fleeing airstrikes, seeking shelter, and facing the challenge of finding enough food and supplies.
