Israeli army calls on residents of eastern Rafah to move to 'expanded humanitarian' zone

The Israeli army on Monday called on Palestinians in the eastern areas of Rafah to move to a nearby 'expanded humanitarian zone,' in what appears to be the start of evacuating civilians ahead of a ground attack on the city located in the southern Gaza Strip.

A military statement said that leaflets, text messages, phone calls, and media announcements will be used "to encourage... the gradual movement of civilians in designated areas."
