Israel sent thousands of Palestinian workers to the besieged Gaza Strip and blindfolded them while also putting plastic handcuffs on their hands.
According to information provided by an unnamed security source at the Kerm Abu Salim Border Crossing in the southern Gaza Strip, Israel deported thousands of Palestinian workers from the occupied West Bank to Gaza.
As the workers reached the city of Rafah in Gaza, Israeli officials confiscated all their money and mobile phones.
An article in Haaretz newspaper yesterday reported that the Israeli cabinet had decided to send back all Gazan workers in Israel and the West Bank.
Thousands of Gazan workers with work permits in Israel had been unable to return to their families in Gaza since the start of the war on October 7th.
The Israeli army has widened its air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip, which has been under relentless airstrikes since the surprise offensive by the Palestinian group Hamas on Oct. 7.
Nearly 10,800 people have been killed in the conflict, including at least 9,227 Palestinians and nearly 1,540 Israelis.
Basic supplies are running low for Gaza's 2.3 million residents due to the Israeli siege, in addition to the large number of casualties and displacements.
