“No food or medical supplies have entered Gaza for nine weeks, and Israeli forces have now seized about 70% of the territory as military buffer or civilian no-go zones, pushing 2.3 million people and aid operations into ever-smaller areas – which are no longer designated as “humanitarian zones”.”

    The only small good you can potentially take from it is at least they want the land.

    Otherwise it’d probably be Ypres 2.0

    Areas where 99% of all plants still die remain off limits. For example, there are two small areas of land close to Ypres and the Woëvre where arsenic constitutes up to 176 grams per kilogram (18%) in the soil.
