Thousands of Palestinians, including men, women, children and elderly, attempted to return to their homes in northern Gaza on Sunday when they came under Israeli fire.
“We reached all the way to the checkpoint until we saw Israeli tanks. We headed back because they fired towards us. We didn’t see anyone make it to the other side. We risked our children’s lives to cross, but apparently it was all a lie,” one woman said.
Video shows several people with what appear to be gunshot wounds. One man is seen carrying another man who has blood streaming along his face from a head injury.
“We heard the road was open to Gaza City, so we thought we’d go. When they saw men with us, they started shooting at us. We are tired and humiliated,” Um Awni Al-Jarousha told CNN.
Footage shows people turning around, heading back south with the sound of drones and planes buzzing overhead. Missiles can be seen in the distance while people run in panic.

Another man is seen carrying a 5-year-old girl named Sally Abu Laila, who is bleeding from her head and surrounded by people trying to help.
I just can’t support any politician complicit in this, let alone eager to fund it.
It’s a fucking genocide and our tax dollars are paying for it
And the amount of resources going into genociding people, the high tech drones, the 2,000lb bombs, the surveillance and AI - it’s horrific.
Ffs, of the implication is that you are not going to vote for Biden then think again. you are going to vote, and you will vote Biden because the alternative will be endlessly worse. Not voting is pretty much the same voting for the alternative, so you go out and hate it if you must, but you will vote Biden because ar least he is sorta some what kind of against all this where trump literally wants to “Finish the problem”
Keep repeating that mantra and you too can be just as shocked as Hilary diehards in 2016.
The rest of us know that strategy results in republicans winning and will keep pushing for a better option so we’re not stuck with trump.
Have fun
Yes but if that does happen it will quite literally be you and people like you who are to blame. You’re cutting your nose off to spite your face and then trying to blame the people warning you about how fucking stupid it is to do that.
It’s the most brainless shit I’ve ever fucking seen, almost as bad as the people who actually do want to vote for Trump
Blame voters…
Not the people paid to get Dems elected? The ones going against the desires of their voters? The ones openly antagonistic towards their voters?
The ones that literally cancelled a primary for a state that habitually votes progressive over party favorite?
The ones that scheduled their convention after the state deadlines for candidates to get on the ballot?
The same ones that want to say a primary is over after the 3rd state votes so no one else matters?
It’s completely understandable for you to be angry, but youre not mad at the people creating the situation, you’re mad at people who acknowledge there even is a problem
In order to keep Trump out of office, you’re not going to vote for his opponent?

Her mother Sabreen told CNN her daughter was in her arms when Israeli soldiers shot at her. They had attempted to cross into the north with Sabreen’s husband, but the soldiers turned him back, leaving her and her four children to face the journey alone.
North Gaza is Israel now.
It was never about Hamas. It was always about more land grabs, more ethnic cleansing, more settling.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thousands of Palestinians, including men, women, children and elderly, attempted to return to their homes in northern Gaza on Sunday when they came under Israeli fire.
Video filmed by a CNN stringer shows the once-perilous coastal road of Al Rasheed filled with families walking with their belongings, some riding bicycles, donkey carts and pick-up trucks, smiling and snapping photographs.
In the video shot for CNN, an elderly woman named Um Mohammad walks along the road carrying a heavy bag on her head and two others in her arms, attempting to reach her home.
Many of the people who attempted to head north had been displaced to Rafah, where Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been threatening to launch an offensive that the UN said would lead to a “humanitarian catastrophe.”
A young boy named Omar Al-Dahdouh carried a bag of flour on his shoulder, holding his younger sibling’s hand and sobbing as he walked.
Graphic footage shot for CNN shows Sally crying out in pain, blood on her body with a wound on her head and arm as she gets treated by two doctors.
The original article contains 843 words, the summary contains 184 words. Saved 78%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Afrin used to be something like 90% Kurds. The Turks came as they did not like the facts that the Kurds had a relatively warzone free city controlled by the Kurds, and invaded along with ex-isis fighters wearing new badges created by the Turks. Around 300,000 Kurds fled and live in refugee camps till this day. Afrin area has essentially been ethically cleansed as the Kurdish populationhas has dropped to 10-5%, we know it’s on purpose as Turkey’s great islamic leader said there’s no Kurds in Afrin, only Arabs (excuse to remove the Kurds). That was there nonstop claims till completion.
This happened in 2018. Since then war crimes is through the roof. Kidnappings, rape, killings, forced assimilation, removal of Kurdish signs, ect. (There’s a website for missing people, see below.) They fled for a reason is my point. What has the muslims said? Nothing really, in fact Palestinian aid groups settled in helping arabs that have moved in. Even reports that Palestinian construction companies building homes there, which means they are more than happy to do the same.
Isis fighters live in Afrin, turkey supports it, Palestinians are involved.
This has got to be some kind of hasbara tactic or something. Otherwise I just can’t understand how on a post reporting about civilians in Gaza being bombed, you would start rambling about a completely unrelated topic and then somehow link Palestinians to it.
You question it, but I see hate for Israel thrown in on random articles all over this community. It’s just people pushing their agendas no matter what.
We are witnessing, on a daily basis, an Apartheid State commit genocide on people systematically oppressed for generations
Kurds are useful idiots of Middle East. Us used them for Iraq invasion, used for relocating Syria villages. They big part of destabilization of Iran. Probably Kurd will fight againts Iran next possible Us-Israel attack.
"‘I’m going to Gaza City. It’s enough. We need to go back to our homes and lands. We are tired of displacement… we heard people saying we can go back, but no one official told us. We’ll leave it to God,’ Majd El-Aqqad said. "
That was a phenomenally stupid thing to decide to just walk into an invading army based on gossip. Predictably horrible outcome.
I’d say more “desperate” than “stupid”, try putting yourself in their shoes before judging them from behind your screen.
Desperation is often the cause of stupidity. Walking into an invading army while unarmed is never a wise survival strategy. Show me one single time in History where this went well for most of the people involved.
Point is, “stupid” has a derogatory connotation that is unwaranted in this case.
