STORYLINE:
Thousands of Palestinians were fleeing northern Gaza on Saturday as Israel’s military pushed deeper into dense urban neighborhoods in its battle with Hamas militants.
South of Wadi Gaza, many residents were seen arriving by foot, vehicles and on donkey carts.
Officials in Hamas-run Gaza said the Palestinian death toll has surpassed 11,000 people.
The Ministry there is the only official source for Gaza casualties.
In previous wars, the ministry’s counts have held up to U.N. scrutiny, independent investigations and even Israel’s tallies.
The search for safety in Gaza is growing more desperate as combat intensifies.
Residents who escaped to the south and Palestinian health officials reported strikes in and around Gaza City’s main hospital overnight.
Israel said at least one was the result of a misfired Palestinian rocket.
The World Health Organization said Friday that 20 of Gaza’s 36 hospitals are no longer functioning, including a paediatric hospital that stopped operations after a reported Israeli strike in the area.
More than two-thirds of Gaza’s population of 2.3 million have fled their homes since the war began.
In the south, they’re crowded into shelters with dwindling supplies of food and water as the war enters its second month.
Gaza City, the largest urban area in the territory, is the focus of Israel’s campaign to crush Hamas following the militant group’s deadly Oct. 7 incursion into southern Israel that set off the war.
More than 1,200 people in Israel died, most of them in the Hamas attack, and about 240 hostages were taken from Israel into Gaza by Palestinian militants.
