The Israeli occupation issued new "evacuation orders" to citizens in the northern Gaza Strip on Friday, demanding that they move immediately to the southern part of the Strip.

The "evacuation orders" included the Sultans, Karama, and Al-Awda areas in the northern Gaza Strip, and were accompanied by a threat from the occupation to bomb those areas.

Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz announced that he had ordered his forces to occupy new areas in the Gaza Strip, evacuate them of Palestinians, and expand the surrounding "buffer zones," under the pretext of "protecting Israeli population centers."

Katz threatened to occupy more territory in the Gaza Strip and escalate his aggression against the territory until all Israeli detainees are released.

Last Tuesday morning, the Israeli occupation resumed its war of extermination in the Gaza Strip, resulting in approximately 600 martyrs and more than 1,000 wounded by Thursday evening, 70% of whom are children, women, and the elderly.

The occupation expanded its aggression through a ground invasion of the "Martyrs' Junction" area, reaching Salah al-Din Street, which connects the north and south of the Gaza Strip, in addition to the Shaboura refugee camp area in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, and the northwest of the town of Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip.

The occupation has been committing genocide in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, leaving more than 162,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 14,000 missing.
