‘A nightmare come true’: Palestinians flee again after Israel’s attacks on Gaza

Thousands displaced once more as wave of airstrikes ends ceasefire, killing hundreds and raising new fears about aid

Thousands of Palestinians were on the move in Gaza on Tuesday, after a wave of Israeli airstrikes signalled the end of almost two months of calm in the devastated territory. Many were newly bereaved, and most had been displaced many times.

Like others in Gaza, Ghaitam, a 19-year-old from a village near the southern city of Khan Younis, said he was woken at about 2am by the sounds of warplanes, explosions and screaming. “It was a nightmare that came true,” he said.
