A spokesman for the Israeli military told journalists it will order “around 100,000 people” to leave eastern Rafah, ahead of an expected ground assault there.
The international community has warned Israel that a military operation in Rafah, where 1.5 million Palestinians are sheltering, would be “catastrophic”.
Last night, Israel killed at least 22 people in Rafah.
