Since October 10, 2025, despite a US-mediated ceasefire, Israeli attacks have killed at least 414 Palestinians and injured 1,145 in Gaza. As of January 5, 2026, the Israeli military has expanded its occupation beyond the "yellow line" in eastern Gaza, specifically in the Tuffah, Shujayea, and Zeitoun neighborhoods of eastern Gaza City. This expansion is pushing closer to Salah al-Din Street, displacing families and shrinking the area where Palestinians can seek shelter. Al Jazeera reports that Israel now occupies over 50% of the Gaza Strip, with ongoing attacks and territorial expansion further limiting the space available to civilians. The purpose of the expansion is to control more territory across the eastern part of Gaza.
