Israeli military issues forced displacement orders amid renewed strikes on Gaza

The Israeli military has renewed its forced displacement orders for Palestinians to leave several areas in Gaza following fresh Israeli aggression against the besieged Palestinian territory.

Israeli warplanes on Wednesday dropped leaflets ordering residents of the towns of Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza and Khuza’a and Abasan in the south to leave immediately.

Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee on his X account asked Palestinians in Beit Hanoun to head towards western Gaza City, and for people in eastern Khan Yunis to move towards its western areas.

Adraee also hinted at the Israeli army’s intention to target these areas with bombardment.

About 100,000 Palestinians are estimated to be affected by a series of evacuation orders in the last 24 hours.

After taking office in January, US President Donald Trump called for forcibly displacing Gazans in other countries, preferably Jordan and Egypt. The Israelis quickly agreed to the plan, which ensured Gaza's ethnic cleansing.

However, the plot has been widely condemned and raised serious legal and moral issues.

The forced displacement comes as Israel has launched a fresh wave of airstrikes in Gaza on the second day of its resumed offensive in the devastated Palestinian territory.

The relentless bombardment has left emergency teams struggling to reach the dead and wounded.

Renewed Israeli attacks on Gaza ‘continuation of genocide, ethnic cleansing’: Iran

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei has strongly condemned renewed Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, describing them as a “continuation of genocide and ethnic cleansing” in the besieged territory.

More than 400 Palestinians were killed and hundreds injured in renewed Israeli airstrikes in Gaza on Tuesday in one of the biggest single-day tolls since the start of Israel’s genocidal campaign in October 2023.

The White House says Israel’s new attacks on Gaza are in coordination with the Trump administration.

The attacks shattered a ceasefire and prisoner-captive exchange agreement that lasted nearly two months.

Hamas holds US 'directly responsible' for Israel’s renewed aggression

Hamas has held the United States, the Tel Aviv regime’s biggest benefactor, responsible for Israel’s renewed aggression against defenseless civilians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Israeli has refused to enter into discussions about the deal’s second phase, which is intended to lead to a permanent end to hostilities, the withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Gaza, and the return of all the captives.

It has also re-imposed a strict blockade on the territory and cut off remaining electricity supplies.

About 50,000 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, in a brutal Israeli military campaign in Gaza since October 2023.

In November 2024, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former war minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for its war on the blockaded Palestinian region.
