  "summary": "Israeli forces killed eight Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, as they issued fresh expulsion orders in several areas, according to local reports. A woman and a child were killed in strikes on two houses in the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City, minutes after residents were told to leave. Panic ensued as families rushed to flee, but not everyone managed to escape before the bombing. Elsewhere in Gaza City, Israeli forces ordered residents in the Old City to evacuate ahead of further strikes. In southern Gaza, Israeli forces also issued evacuation orders for two areas after bombing them. The latest strikes and forced displacement come a day before the first anniversary of a ceasefire announced to end Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, launched in October 2023 after the Hamas-led attack in southern Israel.",
