"Rafah: Palestinians' Daily Struggle for Survival Amidst Israeli Threats"

In the besieged city of Rafah, Palestinians are struggling to survive amid shortages of food, medicine, and basic supplies as Israel's ground offensive continues in the Gaza Strip. The city, once deemed a "safe zone" for displaced civilians, is now at risk of becoming the next focus of the offensive, with hundreds of thousands of people sheltering there. International aid agencies warn of a catastrophic situation if an attack occurs, while Israel insists on taking Rafah to ensure the destruction of Hamas and the freeing of Israeli hostages. The humanitarian aid system is struggling to keep Gaza's population alive, and the situation remains dire as the war enters its fifth month.
