There are few options. And since the war restarted, over 500,000 have been again displaced. Israel says its strategy has been not only military maneuvers, but seizing and holding territory.

Israel never left the Philadelphi Corridor along the Egypt border, or a buffer zone around the Strip. Since the war restarted, it expanded that buffer zone from hundreds of feet to nearly a mile, recaptured the Netzarim Corridor that bisects Gaza with an 18-mile security zone around it.

Israel’s also created what it calls the Morag Corridor, named after an ancient Jewish settlement, and connected it to a security zone that includes all of Rafah. Israel’s believed to control nearly one-third of Gaza.
