The IDF's yellow line of concrete barriers advanced westward on Saturday in the Zaytoun neighborhood of eastern Gaza City and the Wadi Salqa area in central Gaza Strip, forcing dozens of families to evacuate their homes, according to Gaza-based reports cited by Abu Ali Express.
The IDF's yellow line — a series of concrete barriers marking the forward edge of Israeli military positions — advanced westward on Saturday in two areas: the Zaytoun neighborhood in eastern Gaza City and the Wadi Salqa area in central Gaza Strip. Dozens of families were forced to evacuate their homes after the line shifted to include their residences, according to Gaza-based reports cited by the Israeli outlet Abu Ali Express.
The advance widens the area under Israeli operational control in the northern and central Gaza Strip. The yellow line, which has been gradually expanded in recent weeks, now encompasses additional residential districts in eastern Gaza City and parts of the central Strip. No confirmation from the IDF has been published yet, and the exact extent of the new line remains unclear based on the available reports.
