Zeitoun Under Fire: Relentless Israeli Strikes Devastate Gaza Neighborhoods

The focus of the Israeli air strikes and artillery shelling in recent days has been the Zeitoun and Sabra neighbourhoods, a little east of Gaza City.

There have been endless Israeli air strikes and artillery shelling, and continuous bombardment. People are saying the explosions do not stop. Zeitoun neighbourhood is being wiped off the map.

This is the same exact scenario that took place in Rafah, in parts of Khan Younis, in Jabalia, in Beit Lahiya, in Beit Hanoon, where Israeli forces concentrate on that area.

We’re seeing houses, schools, public facilities, government buildings – everything in Zeitoun is being destroyed.

Still, there are Palestinians who are staying put. They don’t want to leave because they believe they will be targeted if they do.
