Israeli Forces Strike in Humanitarian Zone; Scores Reported Killed An official at a major hospital in Gaza said hundreds of injured people had arrived there. Israel renewed its military assault in parts of Khan Younis in southern Gaza on Monday, in a ground and air operation that local health officials said killed and wounded scores of people, adding to the misery of a city deeply scarred after nine months of war. The Israeli military said in a statement that it had launched the operation because intelligence indicated that Palestinian militants had used the eastern part of the city — part of an area previously designated as a humanitarian, or “safe” zone — to fire rockets toward Israel and that Hamas was attempting to regroup there. Earlier on Monday, the Israeli military had warned people in that area to leave, and photographs showed thousands fleeing. The Gazan health ministry said 70 bodies were brought to Nasser Hospital, and at least 200 other people had been wounded, adding that others were almost certainly buried under rubble. The Palestine Red Crescent said its teams in the area had dealt with at least 12 people who had been killed and 50 wounded. nytimes.com Logic would dictate that militants would be leery of moving with the civilians to a temporarily designated safe zone after so many Israeli attacks. No mention of any militants killed or targeted. Very similar to the 1948 Deir Yassin massacre where the village had declared their peaceful intent. That attack precipitated the flight of 700,000 Arabs from Israel during the Nakba. So far, 200 thousand may have been killed by Israel while another 115,000 have fled to Egypt.
