Israeli army drops leaflets, orders Palestinians to leave Gaza City

The Israeli army ordered all Gaza City residents on Wednesday to evacuate and move towards Deir el-Balah. The military distributed leaflets urging residents to leave immediately and head south towards Zawaida and Deir el-Balah. The leaflets warned that "Gaza City will be a dangerous combat zone" and provided instructions on safe evacuation routes via the Salah al-Din road or the coastal road. Specific safe corridors include “Tariq bin Ziyad” and “Omar al-Mokhtar” streets for crossing west to Al-Rashid (al-Bahr) Street, and “Al-Wahda” and “Khalil Al-Wazir” streets for crossing east to the “Al-Zaytoun neighbourhood” and “the city roundabout,” and from there to the south through “Salah al-Din” street. Campaigners question the use of the word “evacuation” as Israel has forced Palestinians to flee multiple times since the war began in October, and Israeli forces have repeatedly attacked so-called “safe zones” where Palestinians were asked to relocate.
