The Israeli army issued new evacuation orders on Friday for residents of several areas of the central and southern Gaza Strip that the army has classified as “humanitarian safe zones”.
The Israeli army ordered residents of neighborhoods north of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip and neighborhoods in eastern Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip to evacuate the areas.
It claims that the Palestinian resistance group Hamas is operating in these areas and that they will be “dangerous combat zones”.
Israeli forces continue to bomb the Gaza Strip daily, home to around 2.3 million Palestinians.
More than 40,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since October 7, most of them women and children, and more than 92,000 have been injured, according to local health authorities.
Israel has been accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose latest ruling ordered Tel Aviv to immediately halt a military operation in the southern city of Rafah, where more than a million Palestinians sought refuge from the war before it was attacked on May 6.
