The UN OCHA said 30 Palestinian families were displaced in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, after Israeli tanks advanced toward the Al-Attatra junction shortly after midnight.
It said families fled when tanks moved into the area, and a drone dropped incendiary munitions that set three tents on fire. Most families later returned after withdrawal, but six remained displaced due to a yellow concrete barrier placed near their homes.
OCHA warned that such barriers indicate expansion into populated areas along the so-called “Yellow Line,” where lethal force has reportedly been used, and noted ongoing humanitarian assistance for newly displaced families.
