Recent satellite images have revealed the construction of a large tent compound near Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip. This development is part of preparations for an anticipated Israeli military offensive in the nearby city of Rafah. The tent city is presumably intended to accommodate civilians evacuated from Rafah, where Israeli news sources report Hamas's remaining battalions may be located. The images and reports indicate a significant mobilization by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in the area.
