TL;DR Summary

Displaced Palestinians from Gaza have sought refuge in the demilitarized zone along the Gaza-Egypt border, facing squalid conditions and a lack of international assistance. As Israel's offensive pushes further south, an estimated one million displaced people have sought shelter in the overwhelmed city of Rafah and the barren Philadelphi Corridor.
