“I am definitely afraid, very afraid, but I will not risk the lives of my wife and children on the way to the south,” he said, referring to reports that some of those fleeing were killed in an airstrike. “Let us die inside our homes,” he said. “The road is dangerous.” The Israel Defense Forces are “not aware of such an event at this location. We did not fire. We will not cooperate with the manipulations of Hamas,” the Israeli military said in statement.
Israel first issued the order to evacuate Gaza City and the north on Friday. More than a million people live in the area under the order. “We’re not going to do carpet bombing of Gaza. Every target will have intelligence behind it,” Hecht said. Israeli officials have said the aim of the war in Gaza is to dismantle Hamas’s military and political capabilities.
The evacuation orders appear to signal that Israel plans to significantly escalate its war against Hamas ahead of, or in tandem with, an expected ground invasion. But human rights groups and aid organizations are warning that civilians must continue to be protected, regardless of the orders to move out.
