Amid intensifying clashes, Israel has announced a 48-hour evacuation window for Palestinians fleeing Gaza City, urging civilians to move south as military operations target Hamas militants. The move comes as local health authorities report over 63 deaths in Gaza on Wednesday alone, with casualties mounting in the two-year conflict.
Evacuation Push & Humanitarian Toll
An Israeli official told Reuters the military aims to empty Gaza City of civilians, warning of months-long operations if no ceasefire is reached. While 100,000 residents are expected to stay, the window offers a fragile lifeline for those seeking safety. 🕊️
Conflict’s Rising Toll
Palestinian health officials say the death toll has now surpassed 65,000 since hostilities began. Gaza City remains the epicenter of recent strikes, with hospitals overwhelmed and infrastructure crumbling. 🌍
As global calls for de-escalation grow louder, all eyes remain on whether temporary pauses can evolve into lasting solutions. For now, the clock ticks for families navigating rubble-strewn streets to reach the evacuation corridor.
