Evacuation of Rafah neighborhoods underway as Israel signals impending offensive following the collapse of the hostage deal negotiations and the demand by Hamas to end the war in Gaza. https://www.ynetnews.com/article/s1bijjug0
“Israel’s military offensive in Rafah could lead to the deadliest phase of this conflict, inflicting horrific suffering on approximately 1.4 million displaced civilians in the area. The relocation orders issued by Israel today to thousands of Gazans, directing them to move to Al-Mawasi, are beyond alarming. The area is already overstretched and devoid of vital services.” - Norwegian Refugee Council Secretary General Jan Egeland
