‘Nothing to salvage’ in Jabalia

Israeli forces have pulled out of much of northern Gaza, particularly the Jabalia refugee camp. But they can still to go back whenever they want. Perhaps the most accurate description of what’s going on right now is a tactical withdrawal. The military left a trail of devastation and destruction in the refugee camp. Up to 70 percent of it has been turned into a pile of ruins. This includes public facilities, schools, hospitals, clinics and residential homes. People are going back to check on their homes to see what they can salvage, but it is all in vain – there is nothing to salvage. Right now, paramedics and civil defence crews are trying to collect bodies in areas they were not able to reach before. The bodies are being transferred to Kamal Adwan Hospital and other facilities, which are completely pushed out of service. They serve as nothing more than a morgue for the bodies. While Israeli forces withdrew from the area, they did not announce an end to military operations in northern Gaza. This means there is a chance of them going back, with a very high likelihood of killing more people and causing more destruction.
