The Israeli military issued an “urgent” call on Sunday, for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to evacuate southward to ensure their personal safety. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari stated that the military has been calling on residents of the northern Gaza Strip and Gaza City to relocate southward temporarily for the last two weeks.

"We are today emphasizing that this is an urgent call," he said, adding that the number of people confirmed held hostage in Gaza since Hamas' Oct 7 cross-border onslaught in southern Israel had risen to 239.

According to Reuters, IDF video claims to show an expansion of ground operations in Gaza. The military reported that they have targeted 450 locations in the Gaza Strip, including operational command centers, observation posts, and anti-tank missile launch posts. An official announcement from the army stated that an officer was severely injured, and a soldier was moderately injured during an overnight "engagement with terrorists." Reuters was not able to independently verify the location or date when the videos were filmed.

Also, Karim A. A. Khan KC, the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), recently visited the Rafah Border Crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip and spoke about the “dire humanitarian situation developing” and the suffering of civilians in the area.

According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the ground operation against Hamas in Gaza marks the second phase of a three-week-old conflict aimed at crushing the Palestinian militant group.
