(Archyde.com, Jerusalem, 14th) Israel yesterday ordered residents in northern Gaza to move south. The Israeli military said today that it has seen a large-scale movement of Palestinian civilians southward. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed further retaliation for last week’s Hamas raid.
The Gaza Strip has been indiscriminately bombarded by Israel, and the trapped Palestinians have no electricity, food and drinking water. US President Biden said that he is negotiating with regional governments to resolve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
A week ago, fighters from the Palestinian armed organization “Hamas” crossed the border into Israel, killing 1,300 Israelis, mainly civilians, and taking many people hostage. In retaliation for the attack, Israel has vowed to annihilate Hamas.
Israel then launched a comprehensive siege of the Gaza Strip under Hamas rule and launched an unprecedented air raid and bombing campaign. There are 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, and authorities say 1,900 people have been killed.
Yesterday, more than 1 million residents in northern Gaza received a notice from Israel, giving them 24 hours to flee south. The final evacuation period passed at 5 a.m. local time on the 14th (10 a.m. Taipei time on the 14th).
Israeli military spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricus said at a video press conference early this morning: “We are seeing a large-scale movement of Palestinian civilians southward.” He did not mention the final time for the evacuation and did not take questions. .
He said: “In the area around the Gaza Strip, Israeli reservists are forming in preparation for the next phase of operations. They are on standby around the Gaza Strip, in the south, in the center and in the north. They are ready to execute the targets they receive, receive Arrived mission.”
“The end of this state of war is that we will disband Hamas, disarm its military capabilities, and completely change the situation so that Hamas will no longer be able to cause any harm to Israeli citizens or soldiers.”
Hamas vows to fight until the last drop of blood and asks residents to stay in their homes.
An Israeli military spokesman said yesterday that some ground troops launched an assault under the cover of combat vehicles to sweep away Palestinian rocket units and collect information on the location of the hostages. This is the first official mention of ground troops entering Gaza since the latest Israeli-Palestinian crisis broke out.
After the start of the Jewish Sabbath yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a rare televised statement, saying: “We are striking our enemies with unprecedented force. I want to emphasize that this is only the beginning.” Central News Agency (translation)
