Gaza City | September, 21, 2025
Heavy bombardment has continued across Gaza City, leaving widespread destruction to homes, schools, and civilian infrastructure.
Thick plumes of smoke rose over the city skyline on Sunday as Israeli forces expanded ground and air operations, forcing thousands of residents to flee.
According to humanitarian officials, several shelters and health facilities have sustained damage, worsening an already severe humanitarian crisis.
Large numbers of civilians have been displaced, with families seeking refuge in overcrowded areas to the south and along the coast.
Eyewitnesses reported the use of remote-controlled explosive devices in parts of the city during the demolitions, though independent confirmation of this tactic remains limited.
Military officials have stated that their operations target armed groups and fortified positions embedded within urban neighborhoods.
Humanitarian agencies warn that the destruction is accelerating displacement and deepening shortages of essential supplies, calling for urgent protection of civilians and adherence to international humanitarian law.
