A Palestinian woman says Israel killed her father and brother, and a year after a ceasefire agreement, she cannot reach their graves due to Israeli restrictions in Gaza, Middle East Eye reported. The expanding Yellow Line—a designated buffer zone—has swallowed more territory, forcing hospitals to close and displacing families across the territory.
The restrictions compound grief for families separated from burial sites, as Israel's control over movement within Gaza prevents access to cemeteries and other areas affected by the expanding exclusion zone.
