Al Jazeera's special coverage, "Gaza: Promises and Reality," examines the gap between what was promised when the US-brokered ceasefire began and the reality Palestinians face today. Over five days, the coverage explores how Israel's genocide in Gaza – which has killed more than 73,000 Palestinians, including at least 20,000 children – continues to reshape the territory and its people. Day one of the special focuses on Israel's expanding military control. What was once the "Yellow Line" – a boundary indicating where troops would withdraw to – has extended deeper into Gaza. The UN now calls the new boundary the "Orange Line," covering an additional 11% of the territory. Israel now holds nearly 65% of Gaza, leaving just 36% of the land for more than two million people. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the military to expand its control to 70%. A displaced father, Saad Yaseen, said he fled eastern Gaza because of constant shelling despite being told he was not within the Yello
