Over two-thirds of Gaza designated as no-go zone: UN
2025-04-12
[GEO.TV] The UN warned Israel's latest evacuation orders are leaving Palestinians with shrinking space to survive in Gaza and further worsening the humanitarian crisis, Al Jazeera reported.

In a news conference, UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said Israel on Friday issued ''two new displacement orders covering vast areas in northern and southern Gaza''.

''Several medical facilities and storage sites containing critical supplies are located within newly designated displacement zones,'' he added.

Dujarric warned of ''life-threatening consequences''.

''With this latest development, OCHA reports that more than two-thirds of the Gaza Strip is either under active displacement orders or designated as no-go zones. This leaves Palestinians with less than a third of Gaza's area to live in, and that remaining space is fragmented.''

#3  Well, since Israel has supposedly killed all those Gazooks the few remaining don't need all that room anymore anyway, right?

#2  To be fair, IDF-enforced no-go zones keeping out the civilians are very different than the resident-enforced no-go zone enclaves keeping out the police and the native population. Both are war zones, but still.

#1  Is the UN similarly worried about no-go zones in France, Germany, and the UK?

I'll go ahead and guess "no".
