UN appeals to Israel to end forced displacement of Palestinians in Gaza Strip

The UN Human Rights Office accused the Israeli Defense Forces of displacing civilians in Gaza and destroying infrastructure. Reports indicate Israel plans to expand military control to 70% of Gaza, increasing from a previously agreed 53%. The UN noted attacks on displaced persons' camps and the use of explosives by IDF. A drone strike on October 25 reportedly targeted tents housing displaced families, causing a fire. The UN emphasized that forced displacement may constitute war crimes and called for safe return for Palestinians. The humanitarian crisis is exacerbated by restrictions on aid delivery, leaving many without adequate shelter.
