About Take Shelter


Curtis LaForche (Michael Shannon) lives in a small Ohio town with his loving wife (Jessica Chastain) and hearing-impaired daughter (Tova Stewart). Though money is tight, he and his family are very happy. But then, Curtis begins having terrifying dreams about an apocalypse that threatens them all. Rather than confiding in Samantha, he begins building a storm shelter in the backyard, and his strange behavior causes tension in their marriage and the surrounding community.

Israeli forces reported to be pushing into southern Gaza

Aug 7,2023 3:41 pm

Israeli forces are pushing into southern Gaza around Khan Younis.

The Move , initially reported by Israeli Army Radio , effectively confirms Israel has launched ground operations to the north of Khan Younis.

The Bbc has also verified pictures on Social Media which shows an Israeli tank operating near The City .

The Head of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) later told troops the IDF was also fighting " strongly and thoroughly" in south Gaza.

Lt General Herzi Halevi was speaking to reservists from the Gaza division about military objectives and the IDF's killing of Hamas commanders.

He told The Soldiers : " We fought strongly and thoroughly in the northern Gaza Strip , and We Are also doing it now in the southern Gaza Strip ".

Since a week-long ceasefire ended on Friday, Israel has resumed a large-scale bombing campaign on Gaza, which residents of Khan Younis have described as the heaviest wave of attacks So Far .

The seven-day truce saw Hamas release 110 hostages being held in Gaza In Return for 240 Palestinians being released from Israeli prisons.

A UN official has described a " degree of panic" he has not seen before in a Gaza hospital, after the Israeli military shifted the focus of its offensive to The South .

James Elder, from The Children 's agency Unicef, described Nasser Medical Hospital in Khan Younis as a " warzone".

An adviser to Israel's Prime Minister said Israel is making " maximum effort" to avoid killing civilians.

Mr Elder told The Bbc he could hear constant large explosions close to the Nasser hospital and children were arriving with head injuries, terrible burns, and shrapnel from recent blasts.

" It's a hospital I've gone to regularly and The Children know me now, the families know me now. Those same people are grabbing my hand, or grabbing my shirt saying 'please take us somewhere safe. Where is safe?'"

" They are unfortunately asking A Question to which the only answer is there is nowhere safe. And that includes for them, as they know, that hospital, " He Said .

The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says More Than 500 people have been killed since the bombing resumed.

More Than 15,500 people have been killed in The Strip since The War began, the ministry also said.

Israel began its retaliatory bombing of Gaza following Hamas's attacks on southern Israel on 7 October, which saw around 1,200 people killed and 240 taken hostage.

Rockets have also been regularly fired at Israel from Gaza since fighting resumed on Friday. A 22-year-old man in The City of Holon, near Tel Aviv, was treated for minor shrapnel injuries on Saturday.

Hundreds of thousands of people have already fled the fighting to Take Shelter in Khan Younis, after being told to leave the north of The Strip by Israel.

The latest UN update says around 1. 8 million people are internally displaced in Gaza.

Speaking to The Bbc , the UN's Human Rights chief, Filippo Grandi , said Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are being " pushed more and more towards a narrow corner of what is already a very narrow territory".

The IDF has begun posting maps of areas set to be attacked online. It says these maps, along with other measures like phone calls and leaflets being dropped on Gaza by plane, will warn people to evacuate.

Speaking to The Bbc 's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme, Prime Minister Netanyahu's senior adviser Mark Regev said civilians are not targets and protecting them is made more difficult by Hamas " embedding its military terror machine" in civilian neighbourhoods.

He says the IDF are trying to be " as surgical as we can in a very difficult combat situation" and has given advance warning of attacks.

Separately, the IDF say they have destroyed 500 " terror tunnel" shafts used by Hamas in Gaza, out of the 800 they say have been found So Far .
