The ground offensive in Gaza has resumed, intensifying the already dire conflict. According to CBS News, Israeli forces have recommenced ground operations in central and southern Gaza, including the critical corridor dividing the region. This escalation occurs amidst reports of increasing civilian displacement and continued rocket fire from Gaza.
Rocket Attacks and Evacuations
On April 6, 2025, rockets were launched from the Deir el-Balah area in Gaza, targeting Ashkelon and Ashdod. Reports indicate that one person sustained moderate injuries, and others were treated for panic following a stampede as individuals sought shelter. The recent rocket attacks have prompted further evacuation orders from the Israeli military in central Gaza, specifically affecting the Deir el-Balah area, as reported by Al Jazeera.
International Protests
Mass protests against the war in Gaza and U.S. support for Israel were held in Rabat, Morocco, on April 6, 2025. These demonstrations reflect growing international concern over the conflict’s impact on civilians and regional stability.
