While the gradual withdrawal of the Israeli army which started on
Saturday continued yesterday (4 August), numerous incidents of
heavy shelling and ghting have taken place, resulting in
additional civilian casualties and damage to homes and civilian
infrastructure. Between 10:00 and 17:00, the Israeli military
declared a unilateral humanitarian pause to take place across
the Gaza Strip, except for certain areas in the eastern part of
Rafah governorate and east of Gaza city (Ash Shujaiyeh).
Since the launch of the Israeli military operation, hundreds of
homes have reportedly been directly targeted by Israeli
airstrikes, and it is estimated that nearly 1,000 houses have been
totally destroyed or severely damaged in this manner, causing
civilian casualties, including multiple members of the same
family.
Gazas medical services and facilities remain on the verge of
collapse, with hospitals and clinics overwhelmed. Hospitals are
struggling to transfer more patients to medical facilities outside of
Gaza, both for life-saving treatment and to reduce the pressure
on hospitals and free up beds for new casualties.
