    They’re telling the UN to evacuate, not for the UN to evacuate Palestinians. Bibi wants as few international “casualties” as possible. The west doesn’t give a shit if it’s Palestinians getting slaughtered, but once an “international peacekeeper” or bureaucrat gets killed, he’s afraid the west will turn against Israel.

    Edit: actually, I may have misread the article.

      No the article literally says

      The Israeli Ministry of Defense and the IDF notified the UN just before midnight local time that Palestinians living north of Wadi Gaza should evacuate to the southern part of the Gaza Strip in the next 24 hours, according to UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric and another source with direct knowledge.
