Yousri Al Ghoul, a Palestinian political writer, said Israel is committing “ethnic cleansing” in Gaza.
Al Ghoul left al-Shati refugee camp to Jabalia in northern Gaza.
“We didn’t know where to go,” he told Al Jazeera. Al Ghoul said he and his family did not make the trip to the south due to safety concerns.
He said people who made it south have told him that Israeli troops set up multiple checkpoints, “killed many and took many as prisoners … stole their money, stole their jewelry, everything they have”.
“No place in Gaza is safe,” he said. “We don’t have fuel, we don’t have bakeries, we don’t have bread, we don’t have … water.
“Everyone here, even children, think of death.”
