Heavy bombing targeted our incomplete house at night so we took refuge in the lower floor of the building when the F16 jets joined the tanks in bombing our house. We decided to flee to the nearby town of Beit Hanoun. We saw refugees inside Beit Hanoun hospital, but it was shelled and people were killed, Shadi Sahwheel, a displaced Gaza resident, told Press TV.
The displaced Palestinians have accused international aid agencies operating in Gaza of playing into the hands of Israel.
The UN has failed to address our most basic needs. We dont have enough food or clean water and most of our children and pregnant women are sick. My wife and I have six kids and the UN has only provided us with one mattress. There is premeditated negligence on the part of the UN and the international community, Rafat Ghasem, a displaced Palestinian, said.
