Israeli military calls for full evacuation of Gaza City before operation.
The Israeli military has called for a full evacuation of Gaza City ahead of an expanded military operation, targeting what it claims are Hamas military infrastructures, including “terror towers.” Defense Minister Israel Katz reported the demolition of 30 high-rises linked to Hamas, while Prime Minister Netanyahu indicated that this was only the beginning of a larger ground incursion. Over 1 million Palestinians are urged to move to designated humanitarian zones, but aid groups express concerns over the lack of infrastructure to support evacuees. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with reports indicating over 64,000 Palestinians killed, raising humanitarian alarms as the situation intensifies.
