The Israeli army announced last Saturday night that around 900 “terrorists” from Hamas and other Palestinian armed movements were killed during its air and ground operations in Jabalia, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip, which it has been conducting since the beginning of October.

According to the same source, 700 Palestinians were arrested, of which 300 were found to be members of terrorist organizations.

Two Israeli soldiers were killed, according to the Israeli military, which was moving reinforcements there from other areas of the Palestinian enclave, where war has been ongoing for more than a year.

The situation in Jabalia is catastrophic, according to testimonies. Tens of thousands of civilians have been evacuated from the area, where it is almost impossible to get food and drinking water.

Palestinian sources complain that too many civilians have been killed in Israeli operations.

The German Agency notes that it is unable to independently verify the accounts given by the two sides.
