Hamas has called on Palestinians to stay in their homes after Israel issued sweeping evacuation orders for almost half of Gaza’s more than 2.3 million people ahead of an expected ground offensive.
The Hamas authority for refugee affairs today told residents in the north of the territory to “remain steadfast in your homes and to stand firm in the face of this disgusting psychological war waged by the occupation”.
You think Israel will just stop and leave the Southern half?
Even if they did, they’re keeping the northern part and annexing it.
But more likely they’ll be invading the southern half immediately after taking the north.
They can’t even leave Gaza, because Israel is attacking the exit to Egypt.
Stop acting like them moving is in any way a valid option. They are literally fucked no matter what they do. And it’s been like this for a long long time.
The stated objective is to eliminate Hamas. Civilians are being told to evacuate the area. Hamas should not be advising otherwise. Doing so is inhumane and using the Palestinian people as human shields.
I think you get all of the information about the reality of this war from headlines and mainstream Western outlets.
Tell you what, why don’t your layout your excavation plan? I would strongly recommend you do at least some light reading about the reality on the ground first.
I find BBC’s coverage quite impartial, even though a lot of their human side of the stories is from Israel.
There are also plenty Of Western media outlets who are trying to depict both points of view in this conflict which is admirable, but I presume the media in the US is more opinionated.
I also think what Hamas did was horrendous, but I know that the answer of Israel is not the solution either, and it is a pity just because politics and religion so many innocents from both sides have to suffer.
IDF spokesperson in Arabic - “The population of the city of Gaza, we address you this morning to leave the city of Gaza to the southern Gaza Strip for your security. I want to inform you that the IDF will refrain from touching the designated route on the map until 20:00. For your security, take advantage of the next time to move south from Beit Hanoun to Khan Yunis. We will publish additional safe methods later on. If you are concerned about yourselves and your loved ones, it is advisable to move south according to our instructions. Be close and assured that Hamas leaders are only concerned with protecting themselves in preparation for the upcoming attacks.”
I’m sorry, but parroting the IDF is not credible. Especially considering we’ve already had reports in the last several days of these IDF evacuation routes being bombed by the IDF.
So either go read up on the realities of Gaza, or GTFO with your idiotic takes.
I’m simply sharing their message. I’m very well aware of the realities on the ground, first hand. The people in Gaza should listen to the IDF and not Hamas to save their lives.
