Humanitarian groups warn that the move is likely to escalate the famine crisis, with limited transport and unsafe conditions impeding evacuation efforts. This news comes amid reports that only about 50,000 residents can afford to move to the designated Al-Mawasi zone, sparking widespread panic among Gaza\u2019s one million inhabitants. The ground offensive follows weeks of intensive bombardment, drawing criticism from international observers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707-1024x575.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-133343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707-1024x575.png 1024w, https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707-390x220.png 390w, https:\/\/shiawaves.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-10-093707.png 1031w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the Global Sumud Flotilla, seeking to break Israel&#8217;s naval blockade and deliver humanitarian aid to war-torn Gaza using civilian boats, has reported two drone strikes over the past 48 hours.
