The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have expanded their ground offensive in the Gaza Strip, issuing evacuation orders to residents of central Gaza's Bureij and five other neighborhoods. Civilians have been directed to move south towards Deir al-Balah and seek shelter in areas including UNRWA shelters as military operations intensify. The Nakba, an ongoing Palestinian experience of displacement, is highlighted as families flee from the Al-Bureij refugee camp following threats of attack by the Israeli army. The escalation has affected not only Bureij but also the Nuseirat area, with the Palestinian death toll rising. Israeli authorities have ordered the evacuation to facilitate the expansion of their military operation, impacting over 150,000 people. The region is already overwhelmed with displaced individuals, including those in UNRWA shelters. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has expressed concern, stating that there is nowhere safe for the evacuees to go, as they are being directed into areas currently under airstrike.

People in #Gaza are People. They are not pieces on a checkerboard - many have already been displaced several times. The Israeli Army just orders people to move into areas where there are ongoing airstrikes. No place is safe, nowhere to go. @UNRWA
