As the "All Eyes On Rafah" campaign continues to gain momentum, let's understand the complete issue in detail.

What Is The Meaning Of "All Eyes on Rafah"?

"All Eyes on Rafah" refers to the ongoing crisis in this Gaza city, highlighting the severe impact of Israeli strikes. The phrase is trending on social media as global support pours in for the Palestinians affected.

Who Started All Eyes On Rafah?

The slogan "All Eyes on Rafah" comes from a comment by Rick Peeperkorn, director of the World Health Organization¡¯s Office of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. In February, he said, "All eyes are on Rafah," after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered an evacuation plan for the city before planned attacks on what he claimed were the last Hamas strongholds.

This phrase asks people not to ignore what¡¯s happening in Rafah, where up to 1.4 million people have taken shelter from violence in other parts of Gaza.
