Palestinians flee Gaza City as Israel says it launched ground assault amid global outcry
- On September 16, 2025, Israeli forces initiated a large-scale ground offensive into Gaza City following intense bombing throughout the night.
- This offensive responded to plans targeting Hamas's main stronghold and came amid rising conflict casualties and urgent warnings about a shrinking window for ceasefire negotiations.
- The campaign involved continuous air raids that devastated residential neighborhoods and set parts of Gaza ablaze, while Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz and US Secretary of State Rubio both emphasized the importance of dismantling Hamas and securing the release of hostages.
- Rubio cautioned that Hamas has a very limited timeframe to agree to a ceasefire, emphasizing that there is no longer the luxury of months and that only a matter of days or a few weeks remain. He called on Qatar to play a key role in facilitating negotiations.
- The ground offensive has intensified humanitarian concerns as thousands flee, with the EU and UK warning it will worsen civilian suffering and risk hostage safety amid ongoing violence.
