As Israel’s military advances further in towards Gaza City, Palestinians like Mohammed Zaher fear another forced expulsion with nowhere to go. Exhausted and trapped, he pleads for the war to end, describing life under occupation as unbearable.

Man Utd are reportedly showing an interest in Genk striker Tolu Arokodare.
The Nigerian, who stands at 6ft 6in tall, scored 21 goals in 40 Belgian Pro League matches last season.
He is seen as a cheaper option with Genk supposedly open to accepting a £20m fee.
Ruben Amorim wants a more physical presence up top.
Southampton have turned down a £10m offer from Atalanta for Kamaldeen Sulemana.
The Ghanaian winger is keen on the move to the Serie A club, who are managed by recently axed Saints boss Ivan Juric.
Ajax, Genoa and Torino are all in the race to sign him.
But Atalanta are the first to make an offer and personal terms will not be a problem.
Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Antony and Jadon Sancho will be axed from United’s pre-season tour of the US.
The quartet are all up for sale and will not be flying to the States with the rest of the squad if they have not found a new club by then.
Their first game of the tour is against West Ham on July 27.
United want to force their exits to raise funds for their own spending.
Tottenham, Everton and RB Leipzig are ready to battle it out for Timothy Weah.
The Juventus and US national team star can play at right-back or right-wing.
He is the son of former Ballon d’Or winner and ex-president of Liberia George Weah.
But a Premier League switch for Weah does not seem imminent after he was one of the Juventus stars bizarrely visiting Donald Trump in the Oval Office earlier this week ahead of their Club World Cup opener.
He was asked about that instead of transfers, with him saying: “It was all a surprise to me, honestly, they told us that we have to go and I had no choice but to go.
“When he [Trump] started talking about the politics with Iran and everything, it kind of like, I just want to play football man.”
Liverpool have struck an agreement with Bournemouth for left-back Milos Kerkez, according to journalist David Ornstein.
The champions will pay £40m for the 21-year-old, who is set to put pen to paper on a five-year contract.
Kerkez will undergo a medical next week and the paperwork is currently being sorted between the two clubs.
The Hungarian has spent two seasons at Bournemouth after his £15.5m switch from AZ Alkmaar.
He scored six goals and got two assists last term.
Kerkez’s arrival could spell the end for Andy Robertson amid interest from Atletico Madrid.
Bournemouth have already completed a deal for his replacement in Adrian Truffert from French side Rennes.
Jarell Quansah’s switch from Liverpool to Bayer Leverkusen could be completed by next week.
The clubs have been in talks over a separate deal for the centre-back – not tied to Florian Wirtz’s £116.5m move.
Quansah is open to leaving Anfield and the fee will supposedly be £30m plus £5m in add-ons.
Whether the process of Textor selling his stake in Palace influences Uefa’s final decision remains to be seen.
But it does provide an indication the businessman is open to severing ties with Palace, an eventual scenario that could allow the Premier League club entry into the Europa League.
The other two parties in the running are unconfirmed but well-placed sources have indicated that a globally-renowned entertainment giant based in Florida have shown an interest, while another consortium that includes the NBA star Jimmy Butler also have a reported interest.
Investment vehicle Sportsbank – who were named as the preferred bidder to buy into Eagle at a time Textor was looking for investment – have also shown an interest in making an offer.
However, it is claimed that it would have taken around a month for Sportsbank to draw the financial contributions from their investors from the Middle East and the US which would not suit Textor’s need for a quick sale to help aid Palace’s case with Uefa.
Sources claim that Johnson is best placed among the interested parties to pass the Premier League’s owner’s and directors test given his estimated £3.39bn fortune and his status as globally-renowned businessman. He is the heir to the Johnson & Johnson pharmaceutical company.
Uefa are expected to make a decision on whether Palace can participate in the Europa League by the end of June.
Arsenal defender Gabriel vowed that it’s time to win trophies after penning a new four-year contract.
The Brazilian said: “I arrived here as a young player and after almost five years I’m so happy and I’ve learned a lot.
“I’m so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I’m so happy to continue it. I hope I win some trophies with this club, because I love this club and my family loves the club, too.
“Arsenal is an amazing club and I’m so proud to sign a new contract. I love this club, I love the supporters, my team-mates, I love this stadium. I’m so proud and thank you for all the support. We continue together for the future.”
Rodrygo has emerged as one of Arsenal’s top targets this summer.
The Gunners are aiming to bolster their attack, with the disgruntled Real Madrid ace fitting the bill.
Per Sky Sports, a deal could move forward following the international break.
Jamie O’Hara has claimed that Arsenal should sign Newcastle star Aleksander Isak over Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko.
He told Grosvenor Sport: “The obvious position to strengthen for Arsenal is a striker – they need to get one in.
“They need someone big and strong who can get them 20 goals a season. For me, Kai Havertz just isn’t the man for the job.
“Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko are the obvious choices in the striker department for them. However, the trouble with strikers who come over from other leagues is that they fail to hit the ground running – particularly players from the Bundesliga and Liga Portugal. There’s a massive difference between playing there and in the Premier League.
“I think clubs should be buying Premier League proven players who have been doing it week in, week out already. That’s why I think Manchester United have been quite clever by signing Bryan Mbuemo and Matheus Cunha – we all know they’re going to work for them.
“With that in mind, if I were Arsenal, I’d go and get Isak. I know it will be hard because Newcastle are in the Champions League, but Arsenal are a bigger club than Newcastle and could definitely tempt him.”
