Israel has declared Gaza City a combat zone, with military plans to overtake the area in a campaign targeting Hamas. Entire neighborhoods are being systematically transformed into 'red zones', where Palestinians are ordered to evacuate ahead of expected heavy fighting [3][4].

The psychological trauma is overwhelming. Residents, many of whom had previously returned after initial displacement, now confront the terrifying prospect of leaving potentially forever. Israeli bulldozers are actively razing occupied neighborhoods, while political leaders appear to support mass relocation of Palestinians from Gaza [5][6].

Residents are paralyzed with fear, uncertain whether they will ever be able to return to their homes and communities [7][8].

This emerging humanitarian crisis represents more than a military operation—it signals a potential long-term demographic transformation of the region, with profound implications for Palestinian residents who face the systematic destruction of their urban landscape [9][10].
