The Israeli Army has issued a warning to residents of Beit Lahia in the Gaza Strip to evacuate and relocate to nearby cities as they prepare for a new military operation. This comes despite concerns about the safety of residents in Gaza, where over 34,200 people have lost their lives since the recent attacks by Hamas on Israeli territory on October 7, resulting in 1,200 deaths.
Hamas’s terrorist infrastructure remains a top priority for the Israeli Army, and despite ongoing attacks on civilians in Gaza, they remain committed to targeting it. However, the lack of safe areas in Gaza as reported by human rights organizations has made it difficult for residents to flee from danger.
Following the military incursion against Hamas, the entire population of northern Gaza was instructed to move south. However, approximately 300,000 people chose to stay despite ongoing attacks. The situation remains tense as both sides continue to engage in conflict.
