“No life, no water, no food,” the man says as hundreds of thousands return to the northern gauze
The joy of thousands of Palestinian families who returned home to the northern Gaza after a certificate with Israel turns to despair as the cold reality of uninhabited, bombarded homes and terrible disadvantages of basic stocks.
Many complain about the lack of running water that forces them to turn them to plastic drinks or cleaning vessels. Since most homes are now a bunch of ruins as far as the eye can see, returnees have reviewed all useful items from their property to raise improvised tents.
At night, housing districts are placed on Israeli air attacks and shelling of sinking in darkness due to lack of electricity or fuel to manage generators on standby.
“There is nothing, no life, no water, no food, no drinks, nothing for life. Life is very, very difficult. No Jabalia camp,” said Hisham El-A, who stood next to the ruins of his Multi-Storey House in The largest and mostly densely populated of eight historic refugee camps in Gaza Strip.
His extended family is now thickened in tents, which offer scarce protection against cold in the middle of the winter gauze.
Until late Tuesday, the Hamas authorities in Gaza announced that most of the 650,000 people had again entered the city of Gaza and the northern edge of the enclave, from the area in the south, where the struggles were less intense and destructive.
Many of those who return, often loaded with those personal estates that they still had after breaking around while they moved the Battalion, went 20 kilometers or more along the coastal highway.
Fahad Abu Jalhoum returned with his family to Jabali from the Al Mawasi area in southern Gazi. But the destruction they found was so widespread that they were forced to return south.
“These are only the spirits without the soul [in the north]”Abu Jalhoum told Reuters in Al Mawasi.
“We all missed north, but when I went there, I was shocked. So I got back [the south] until we get relief from God. “
Hamas, Israel Spar over aid
Hamas who spoke on the condition of anonymity said that there were fewer amounts of fuel, cooking gas and tent brought to Gaza from what was agreed in trial negotiations, which Israel strongly denied.
The Hamas-Run Gaza Office put the initial need of the tent at 135,000, but the Hamas officer said that only about 2,000 came into account since the contract entered into force on January 19th.
He also said that working on the rehabilitation of hospitals and bakeries that knocked out the fights did not begin and called the mediators to ensure more flow of assistance, adding that dissatisfaction among militant groups could affect the truce.
Cogat spokesman, an Israeli defense agency associated with the Palestinians, said tens of thousands of tents had entered the gauze from a ceasefire and that gas and fuel were daily in accordance with the agreements.
UNRWA PROBLEMS enters into force on Thursday
The implementation of the UN -Palestinian UNRWA agency prohibition in Israel should start on Thursday.
The law, adopted in October, forbids UNRWA Operation on Israeli Land – including East Jerusalem, which Israel annexed in a movement that was not recognized internationally – and contact with the Israeli authorities from Thursday.
Ahmed Sorour said he worried that market prices in Gaza would go to basic stocks and medicines as a result of a ban.
“Our whole life will be hit,” Sorour told CBC News at Deir El-Balah on Wednesday in Central Gaza. “All health services [they provide] will be stopped. “
Ahmed Naser repeated those worries.
“There is no alternative … UNRWA is responsible for everyone,” Naser said.
UNRWA, which provides assistance, health and educational service to millions of Palestinian territories and neighboring Arab countries of Syria, Lebanon and Jordan, said he would also suffer operations in Gaza comics and western coast.
UNRWA General Commissioner Philippe Lazzarini said on Tuesday the UN Security Council that the move would be “catastrophic”.
According to the agreement, 33 hostages held by Palestinian militants in Gaza must be free from the first six weeks of tribute, in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, many of whom served life in Israel.
So far, seven hostages and 290 prisoners have been exchanged. Thursday three more soils will be replaced for dozens of Palestinian detainees, according to Hamas and a smaller Allied Islamic jihad group.
Hamas initially said he would publish three Israelites or two women and a 80-year-old man-but later said he would release eight prisoners on Thursday, with the addition of five Thai nationals.
The second phase of the agreement, which should start by February 4, should open the way to release more than 60 other hostages, including men of military times, and full Israeli military withdrawal from Gaza.
If that succeeds, it would follow the formal end of the war, along with the conversations of the monumental challenge of the Gaza reconstruction, which is now widely demolished Israeli attack, which killed more than 47,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
The conflict launched a cross -border attack guided by Hamas in southern Israel, which killed 1,200 people, according to Israeli thinner, and saw more than 250 hostages taken. About 90 Israelites and foreigners remained in Gaza. It is unclear how alive they are.
