Photos: Khan Yunis Left in Ruins After Israel Withdraws From Southern Gaza
Sputnik International
Six months after the devastating conflict sparked by the October 7 Hamas attacks, Israeli forces have finally withdrawn from the southern Gaza city of Khan Yunis. Months of fierce battles with Hamas militants left the area completely devastated.
Following the October 7 attack that killed nearly 1,200 people, Israel launched retaliatory strikes, ordered a complete blockade of Gaza, and started a ground incursion into the Palestinian enclave with the declared goal of eliminating Hamas fighters and rescuing hostages. Over 33,100 people have been killed so far by Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip, according to local authorities. The dire situation in the area has been described as a textbook humanitarian crisis, prompting a number of countries to initiate a case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) amid the country's deadly strikes against Palestinians and Gaza's civilian infrastructure.Check out Sputnik's gallery to see the aftermath of the occupation.
