The Israeli military called for a full evacuation of Gaza City on Sept. 9, urging residents to move to the southern areas of the territory as its offensive intensified.
Israel Defence Forces (IDF) spokesperson Avichay Adraee said in a social media post that the military would “act with great force in the area,” and warned that remaining in Gaza City is “extremely dangerous.”
