Israel strikes southern Gaza after ordering immediate evacuations

MULTIPLE STRIKES. Displaced Palestinians leave an area in east Khan Yunis after the Israeli army issued a new evacuation order for parts of the city and Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip on Monday amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas militant group. Prior to Israel’s ground incursion in Rafah, well over one million people had been displaced to Gaza’s southernmost city.

The Israeli military said about “20 projectiles were identified crossing from the area of Khan Yunis”, most of which were intercepted. It reported no casualties and said artillery was “striking the sources of the fire”. Other parts of the Gaza Strip were reeling from continued fighting nearly nine months into the devastating conflict.

The Israeli military said troops “eliminated numerous terrorists” in raids in Shujaiya, where air strikes also killed “approximately 20” militants. Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed at least 37,900 people, also mostly civilians, according to data from the health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza. Israel has accused Hamas of using Al-Shifa and other hospitals in Gaza as a cover for military operations, claims the militants have rejected.
