Mughrabi (Reuters) -Thousands of people are trapped in Gaza's Jabalia camp as Israeli forces attack the area, Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) said on Friday, a week after Israel launched an offensive there which it says is aimed at stopping Hamas regrouping.

The Israeli army launched a renewed assault on the area on 6 October, as it seemingly began to implement the so-called " general’s plan ", which aims to empty northern Gaza of its 400,000 residents to make way for a "closed military zone".

Israeli military strikes on Gaza overnight killed at least 19 Palestinians, medics said on Saturday, while forces continued to push deeper into the Jabalia area, where international relief agencies say thousands of people are trapped.
