 Israel intensifies southern Gaza demolitions, continues blocking aid
ISRAELI OCCUPIED AND STARVED GAZA, 03 Nov. - (ANA) - Israel has intensified its demolitions of buildings in southern Gaza, with reports indicating that the army is also shelling parts of the enclave. Concerns are also mounting over Israel’s continued restrictions on humanitarian aid despite the ceasefire.
According to The New Arab’s Arabic-language sister site, Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, the Israeli army demolished several homes in Khan Younis early Sunday morning, while military vehicles opened fire east of Jabalia in the enclave's north. Al Jazeera English also reported that air raids and artillery fire struck Rafah in the south and Beit Lahiya in the north.
These developments come as Israel maintains a tight siege on Gaza, despite the ceasefire agreement remaining in effect and largely holding.
The Gaza Government Media Office confirmed on Saturday that Israel continues to violate the terms of the agreement, stating that the number of aid trucks allowed into the besieged territory between 10 and 31 October 2025 amounted to only 24 percent of what was stipulated.
The United Nations further reported that humanitarian aid deliveries to Gaza remain heavily restricted, despite modest improvements in food distribution. - (ANA) -
