We Talk: Israel launches ground offensive on Gaza City, civilians flee southward

According to reports from multiple Palestinian media outlets, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have recently intensified airstrikes and artillery bombardments on Gaza City in the northern Gaza Strip. Citing sources within the Israeli military, some U.S. media outlets reported that following U.S. Secretary of State Rubio's visit to Israel, during which he reaffirmed U.S. support for Israel, the Israeli side has officially commenced ground military operations against Gaza City.

A CGTN stringer based in Gaza captured the situation on the ground, showing that many local residents have begun fleeing southward. Numerous families in Gaza lack transportation, forcing them to rely solely on their own feet to secure survival for themselves and their loved ones. Some displaced individuals said they decided to embark on this perilous journey due to the panic experienced by their young children, yet they have no idea where to flee.
