A spokesperson for the Palestinian Red Crescent in Gaza City, Nebal Farsakh, said there is no way one million people could be safely moved from northern Gaza within 24 hours.

 

Farsakh said, “What will happen to our patients? We have wounded, we have elderly, we have children who are in hospitals.”

 

She added that many medics were refusing to evacuate hospitals and abandon patients.

 

Speaking to BBC, she said, “People have no place to go. That’s the point. Hearing bombardments all over the area and asking people to evacuate themselves to another area with this great destruction of the infrastructure and roads and these restrictions of movement, is just something unbelievable.”

 

Meanwhile, an Egyptian politician claims the move is an effort by Israel to force Palestinians to move from Gaza to Egypt.

 

“In this way the Palestinian cause will be completely liquidated.

 

“Egypt will never agree to participate in this plan, and the Palestinians will not leave their land and will remain steadfast, no matter the sacrifices it costs them,” Mustafa Bakri, an MP, says on X, formerly Twitter.
