Israeli army expands evacuation orders to northern Gaza

The Israeli military has ordered Palestinians to leave northern parts of Gaza, including Jabalia and Beit Lahiya, as well as central areas of Rafah in the south.
Some 300,000 Palestinians have fled Rafah following Israeli orders last week for Palestinians in the eastern parts of the city to leave.
They were instructed to relocate to the nearby "humanitarian zone" of al-Mawasi, an area which Unrwa says is already overcrowded and lacks basic services.
