The Israeli army has said that with the resumption of fighting, it had published a map to advise Gazans of safe areas for their evacuation, Reuters reports.
Its statement linked to an Israeli army website in Arabic showing an Evacuation Zone Map. It said an Arabic-language video had been released on social networks and the map was being distributed by the army in Gaza.
“This divides the territory of the Gaza Strip into areas according to recognisable areas to enable the residents of Gaza to orient themselves and understand the instructions, and to evacuate from specific places for their safety if required,” the statement said.
Israel resumed combat operations against Hamas in Gaza today after accusing the Palestinian group of firing rockets at Israel and reneging on a deal to free all women held as hostages, violating their temporary truce agreement.
