A UN camp with no water for days, makeshift shelters in schools, and hospitals that are already overwhelmed... These are the conditions that residents from the northern part of the Gaza Strip find when they arrive in the south after fleeing the Israeli bombardment. The FRANCE 24 Observers team has been following two families who fled the north to seek refuge in the south. They've set up camp at schools and hospitals, where supplies are severely lacking.

Madhat Hajjaj managed to set up a kind of shelter for his four children in the courtyard of a school called Deir al-Balah. Adam Zyara and his family carved out some space in a corridor of the Al-Amal Hospital, in southern Gaza's Khan Younis.
