UN warns of mass displacement of Palestinians from Khan Younis amid Israeli evacuation orders
The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) wrote on its X account, “Just weeks after people were forced to return to a devastated Khan Yunis, Israeli authorities have issued new evacuation orders for the area”.

UNRWA added that an estimated 250,000 people will have to flee the southern Gaza Strip although nowhere is safe in Gaza.

The Israeli occupation army warned residents to evacuate several areas east of Khan Yunis, which it said were dangerous combat zones.

Palestinian residents in Khan Younis have reportedly received orders from Israeli occupation army saying they would immediately start operating with “extreme force.”

Israel’s latest mass evacuation order comes as the regime tanks and fierce fighting trap Palestinian civilians in Rafah, in the south of the Gaza Strip, and the Shujayea neighbourhood in central Gaza City.

At least 37,925 people have been killed and 87,141 wounded Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza since October 7.

Thousands of others are still unaccounted for presumed to be buried under the rubbles.
