Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Israeli Tanks Enter Sheikh Radwan
Caption: Israeli Tanks Enter Sheikh Radwan. Israeli forces have pushed into Sheikh Radwan, a densely populated district in northern Gaza City, escalating their ground operation. Dozens of tanks, bulldozers, and military vehicles moved under artillery and smoke cover following intense airstrikes in the area. Sheikh Radwan, once densely populated, includes Abu Iskandar, al-Tawam, and al-Saftawi, with al-Jalaa Street running through it. The IDF aims to rescue hostages and dismantle Hamas' last urban stronghold. International criticism mounts as the offensive displaces thousands more, forcing civilians to flee towards southern Gaza. UN and aid groups warn the southern safe zone is overcrowded and lacks shelter. Some evacuees have been forced to return north as southern areas cannot accommodate the surge in people needing aid and services. The IDF says over 150 Gaza City targets were hit in two days, including remote-controlled explosive vehicles. Local health officials say more than 65,000 people have been killed since Israel's response to the October 7 Hamas attack. UN officials warn the offensive could deepen Gaza’s humanitarian crisis, worsening conditions for civilians. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
