Israel's war on Gaza, now in its 213th day, has killed at least 34,735 Palestinians — 70 percent of them babies, children and women — and wounded over 78,108.Palestinians are fleeing the eastern parts of Rafah after the Israeli military began evacuating Palestinian civilians ahead of a threatened assault on the southern Gazan city.
Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide called on Israel to refrain from a military invasion of Rafah, in southern Gaza, warning such action would be a tragedy for displaced Palestinians. "We call on the US administration to intervene immediately to prevent this massacre, which would have serious consequences," the PA said in a statement. The Ramallah-based authority said it is holding contacts with regional and international parties, especially the US,"to halt the invasion of Rafah."
"Another massacre of the Palestinians is in the making. Israel is warning Palestinians to leave Rafah as it threatens an attack. All must act now to prevent it," Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said in a statement. The Israeli army issued immediate evacuation orders on Monday for Palestinians in the eastern neighbourhoods of Rafah and called on them to move to the town of al-Mawasi in southern Gaza.EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell condemned Israel's order for Palestinians living in eastern Rafah to flee the southern Gazan city ahead of an expected ground assault.
"No effort can be spared in de-escalating tensions and preventing a wider conflict in the region," said von der Leyen.At least 26 Palestinians, including eight children, were killed in Israeli airstrikes in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, medical sources toldSeveral people were also injured in the attacks that targeted at least 11 houses in the city since Sunday evening, the sources said.
“UNRWA is not evacuating: the Agency will maintain a presence in Rafah as long as possible and will continue providing lifesaving aid to people,” it said.Senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri has said that Israel's Rafah evacuation order ahead of an expected offensive is a"dangerous escalation that will have consequences".
"The much feared scenario has come true: according to World Food Program chief Cindy McCain, there’s full-blown famine in the north of Gaza, moving to the south," Josep Borrell said on X. "The estimate is around 100,000 people," a military spokesman told journalists when asked how many people were being evacuated.
Israel’s state broadcaster KAN said Israeli forces claimed the building was a"military command centre" used by the Palestinian group Hamas.At least six Palestinians have been killed, including two children, and several others injured in Israeli air strikes in the city of Rafah in southern Gaza.
