As most of the world celebrate the new year, Palestinians in Gaza seek shelter and run for their lives as Israel continues it relentless assault on the enclave.
Israeli forces launched fierce ground attacks in and around the southern city of Khan Younis in Gaza on Monday in a grim start to the new year.
Meanwhile, an Israeli military spokesman has confirmed that Tel Aviv is withdrawing thousands of reservists from its invasion force in Gaza, but only temporarily. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari claims that the withdrawal will allow the soldiers to "gain strength" for future attacks in the strip.
Though Israel continues to claim to have nullified any alleged threat posed by Hamas, the Palestinian group's military wing claimed responsibility for a rocket barrage on Tel Aviv on Monday in response to "the genocide in Gaza".
So far, almost 22,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces.
