Concerns over attacks on “safe zone“ in Southern Gaza rise after IDF claims Hamas fired rockets from them 안전지대 없다 이스라엘, 가자남부 피란처 공격 가능성 Good evening. Thank you for joining us. I'm Yoon Jung-min. We start with the intense Middle East war. Along with the continuous offensive happening in Southern Gaza, humanitarian concerns are rising about attacks on so-called “safe zones“ in the region. Gaza's health ministry, run by Hamas, says 350 were killed in the past 24 hours due to intense Israeli bombardments. Park Kun-woo starts us off. Three days after Israel expanded its military offensive to Khan Younis, the largest city in Southern Gaza, concerns about possible attacks on the “humanitarian zone“ in South Gaza are now rising. Those concerns come after the Israeli military posted videos, maps and satellite photos on Thursday, local time, saying 14 rockets had been fired toward Israel from several locations in Southern Gaza, including Al-Mawasi where civilians are seeking shelter. The Israel Defense Forces said Hamas militants “abuse the people of Gaza, utilizing them for its acts of terror” from safe zones. The IDF has encouraged civilians to relocate to areas such as Al-Mawasi, one of the few places left to seek safety, producing videos and releasing maps of the area in both Arabic and English since the early days of the war. But an Israeli military spokesman said he could not speak about future operations, and it is not clear yet whether Israel would designate the safe zones as legitimate military targets, as they did previously, portraying the Al Shifa Hospital in Northern Gaza as a Hamas command and control center before occupying it. The official added civilians of Gaza were being “updated frequently in various ways” about Israeli military activities. According to Gaza's health ministry, around 350 Palestinians were killed in IDF attacks, with another 19-hundred injured on Thursday alone. It added the cumulative death toll since the start of the armed conflict on October 7th has surpassed 17-thousand and 1-hundred, with 46-thousand injured, mostly women and children. Meanwhile, after a guided missile attack by Hezbollah killed a 60-year-old man in northern Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sent a stern warning to the terrorist group. “If Hezbollah chooses to start an all-out war then it will, by its own hand, turn Beirut and southern Lebanon, not far from here, into Gaza and Khan Younis.“ Park Kun-woo, Arirang News. #Israel #Gaza #Hamas #Safe_zone #이스라엘 #하마스 #피란처 #Arirang_News #아리랑뉴스 📣 Facebook : 📣 Twitter : 📣 Homepage : 2023-12-08, 18:00 (KST)
