Israel Orders Evacuations In Southern Gaza After Gaining Full Control Of Al-Shifa Hospital
New leaflets have been mass dropped over the Strip warning towns located in southern Gaza that inhabitants must evacuate. "Palestinians in parts of southern Gaza said they received evacuation notices Thursday," the AP reports.
"The signal that fighting is about to expand in the south comes a day after Israeli forces began searching a north Gaza hospital where they claimed Hamas militants operate — a claim that Hamas and hospital staff deny," the report continues. Already some two-thirds of the Strip's some 2.3 million people have been made homeless by the fighting.
The leaflets dropped over parts of the south reportedly said, "For your safety, you need to evacuate your places of residence immediately and head to known shelters," and named multiple specific neighborhoods.
"Anyone near terrorists or their facilities puts their life at risk, and every house used by terrorists will be targeted," the leaflets said, strongly suggesting that the IDF sees the locations has homes to terror bases.
