A six-hour window issued by the military ordering Palestinian civilians to finish evacuating from Gaza City to the southern part of the strip ended at 4 p.m. local time (9 a.m. ET) yesterday.
The Israel Defense Forces told residents to move towards the Gaza Valley, in a message posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. It is unclear how widely the messaging has been received on the ground given the current electricity and internet blackout.
The IDF has saturated the border with troops and military equipment amid a relentless onslaught on the territory, in retaliation to a large-scale incursion by the militant group Hamas on October 7. “We are preparing for the next stages,” he added, but shared no information if that could be a ground incursion and when.
Israel launched a complete blockade on food, fuel and water entering Gaza on Monday. Human Rights Watch criticized Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant’s call for a complete siege on Monday as a form of “collective punishment” and a “war crime.”
