“Urges a mass evacuation?” Surely they meant Israel threatens to bomb any and all civilians who remain during their ethnic cleansing mission? During an unlawful campaign of collective punishment of shutting off power and water?

“Run!” cries the man chasing them with a gun.

Apparently Israel is unable to distinguish between Palestinians and the group that attacked Israel.

On purpose, do you think?

Urge is not the right word.

I’m sure Israel will hold their fire to allow the evacuation to proceed without casualties.

I’m sure of it because Western media told me so.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Families in cars, trucks and donkey carts packed with possessions crowded a main road heading away from Gaza City as Israeli airstrikes continued to hammer the small, besieged territory.

The military said its troops conducted temporary raids into Gaza to battle militants and hunted for traces of some 150 people — including men, women and children — who were abducted during Hamas’ shocking Oct. 7 assault on southern Israel.

The Israeli public is overwhelmingly in favor of a military offensive, and TV news broadcasts focus heavily on the aftermath of the Hamas attack and make scarce mention of the unfolding crisis in Gaza.

Josep Borrell, speaking to news media on a visit to China, welcomed the evacuation order but said, “You cannot move such a volume of people in (a) short period of time,” noting a lack of shelters and transportation.

Al Awda Hospital struggled to evacuate dozens of patients and staff after the military contacted it and told it to do so by Friday night, said the aid group Doctors Without Borders, which supports the facility.

Associated Press writers Isabel DeBre in Jerusalem, Samya Kullab in Baghdad, Samy Magdy in Cairo, Ashraf Sweilam in El-Arish, Egypt and Kareem Chehayeb in Beirut contributed to this report.

So where are the local Arab states volunteering for a Gaza peacekeeping force to keep the civilians safe?
