The spokeswoman for the Palestinian Red Crescent, Nepal Farsakh, spoke on Friday of the “impossibility” of deporting more than a million Palestinians to southern Gaza in less than 24 hours, according to the orders of the Israeli army.

“There is no way more than a million people can be safely transported so quickly,” Farsakh told the Associated Press.

She added: "Forget food. Forget electricity. Forget fuel. The only worry now is whether the operation will work or not, and whether you will live."

She continued: "What will happen to our patients? We have wounded. We have elderly people. We have children in hospitals."

The spokeswoman pointed out that "many doctors refuse to evacuate hospitals and abandon patients."

In the same context, Enas Hamdan, an official at the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the Gaza Strip, explained to the Associated Press: “This is chaos. No one understands what to do.”

It stated: "All UN staff in Gaza City and northern Gaza were told to evacuate south towards Rafah."

UNRWA announced that it had moved its central operations headquarters and international employees to southern Gaza, to continue its humanitarian operations and support its employees and Palestinian refugees.

Earlier on Friday, the Israeli army issued a statement in which it asked about half of Gaza’s population to evacuate the north of the Strip and head to its south within the next 24 hours.
