Original Note:
Important context: 4 hostages were being held and were successfully rescued at the Nuseirat camp. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/06/08/israel-hamas-war-news-gaza-hostages/ Since Hamas operated in the camp, it is misleading & incorrect to refer to Nuseirat as a “refugee” camp, according to the UN. https://www.unhcr.org/us/publications/military-or-armed-attacks-refugee-camps-and-settlements https://emergency.unhcr.org/protection/legal-framework/civilian-and-humanitarian-character-asylum https://guide-humanitarian-law.org/content/article/3/camps/
