He said Israeli forces destroyed more than 85 per cent of the residential buildings in the neighbourhood.
“Shujaiya has become a disaster area that is not suitable for habitat,” he added.
On Wednesday, the Israeli army said it had ended its military operation in the Shujaiya neighbourhood after a two-week incursion, leaving behind a massive trail of destruction.
Basal said at least 50 people are also believed to have been killed in an Israeli offensive into Tel Al-Hawa west of Gaza City.
“Many families are trapped by the Israeli offensive, with rescuers unable to reach them,” he added.
Flouting a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire, Israel has faced international condemnation amid its continued brutal offensive on Gaza since a 7 October, 2023 attack by Hamas.
Over 38,300 Palestinians have since been killed, mostly women and children, and nearly 88,300 others injured, according to local health authorities.
Nine months into the Israeli war, vast tracts of Gaza lie in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water and medicine.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose latest ruling ordered it to immediately halt its military operation in the southern city of Rafah, where over a million Palestinians had sought refuge from the war before it was invaded on May 6.
