        Israel sent tanks deeper into Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip on Tuesday and advised people to leave as it pounded the historic Palestinian refugee campfrom the air, residents said.
        
        Palestinian medics said casualties had been reported in Jabalia but that they were unable to reach areas under fire.
        
        Israel's army has said its forces are trying to stop fighters from the Hamas militant group staging attacks from Jabalia and want to prevent them regrouping.
        
        "Jabalia is being wiped out," was repeated in many messages posted on social media by residents of Gaza, who on Monday marked the first anniversary of the Israel-Hamas war, triggered by the Hamas attack on southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
