00:00Ambulances weave through the dusty, demolished south of Gaza
00:06with nowhere to take the injured.
00:09The last facility accepting patients
00:12Khan Younis's European Union Hospital
00:15closed after an Israeli evacuation order
00:18leaving this man on the street with both legs broken.
00:23There's no one to care for us patients, he says
00:28As he and others are turned away from the only other option

00:41that killed 25 Palestinians
00:43according to Gaza health officials.
00:45Israel's military says it bombed areas used to launch rockets over the border
00:52attacks claimed by Palestine Islamic Jihad
00:55a militant group that sometimes fights alongside Hamas.
00:59Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows Israeli operations will continue
01:05until Hamas is eliminated.
01:07We are full of the spirit of victory, he says
01:11though there's no sign the fighting is ending.
01:14Instead thousands of Palestinians are on the move once again
01:20but a quarter of a million people told by Israel
01:23to evacuate Khan Younis and the surrounding area.
01:26An evacuation of such a massive scale would only heighten the suffering of civilians
01:31and drive humanitarian needs even higher.
01:34Israel has increased the flow of drinking water to Gaza
01:37but experts say there's still not nearly enough aid
01:41for a population constantly forced to move.
01:44I can't do it, he says.
01:48We're going to die walking.
