In Rafah, people are fleeing attacks by the Israeli army in the fight against Hamas. Helpers from the German organization Cadus are also on site. On the phone you describe a spooky atmosphere that repeatedly turns into panic.
It is eight o’clock on this Monday morning when the first leaflets sail from the sky over Gaza. At the same time, many cell phones in Gaza begin to report automated messages from the Israeli army. The residents of several blocks in Rafah are told to leave the area because they will soon be bombed. Palestinian employees of the aid organization Cadus also receive these calls and messages.
