Israel orders Palestinians to leave southern Gaza

The Israeli military has issued a new evacuation order for parts of Khan Younis and Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Israeli military has issued a new evacuation order for parts of Khan Younis and Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The regime on Monday ordered the Palestinians living in eastern Khan Younis, Gaza’s second-largest city, to urgently leave to an unspecified zone.

The warning for Qarara, Bani Suhaila and other towns in the two governorates, was made in an official statement on social media.

“Fear and extreme anxiety have gripped people after the evacuation order,” said Bani Suhaila resident Ahmad Najjar. “There is a large displacement of residents.”

Earlier orders told the Palestinians to go to the Mawasi area, but that camp city has repeatedly been attacked.

Such evacuation orders generally signal imminent ground assaults by the barbarous Israeli war machine.

Israeli forces have left a trail of death and destruction in various parts of the besieged Palestinian territory.

Israeli forces advanced further on Sunday into the Shujayea neighborhood of northern Gaza City and also pushed deeper into several districts in the east, west and center of Rafah.

Many families are still trapped in Shujayea.

Hundreds of thousands had already left Rafah ahead of and during a ground offensive by Israel on the southernmost city since early May.

The UN has said virtually every Palestinian in Gaza has been displaced multiple times since October 7.

And Israeli forces continue to massacre Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Monday that nearly two dozen people had been killed and 100 wounded in Israeli strikes over the course of one day. “Israeli attacks killed 23 people and injured 91 others in three massacres against [Palestinian] families in the last 24 hours,” the ministry said.

“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them.”
