On the eighth day of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army committed a new massacre against three convoys of citizens at different locations on Salahuddin and Rashid streets.
The convoys were attempting to reach southern Wadi Gaza, per the request of the occupation army. According to the Gaza Governmental Media Office, the preliminary toll of the massacre is 70 martyrs, mostly children and women, and over 200 injured.
Hamas confirmed in a statement that this occupation massacre against fleeing families is a heinous crime. It noted that the attack would only make the people of Gaza more attached to their land and fuel their resistance against Israeli aggression.
Further more, Hamas revealed that the Israeli occupation committed the horrific massacre against displaced Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and that it was the direct result of suspicious calls launched by Israeli occupation forces, urging people to evacuate their homes.
Al-Awda Hospital in Jabalia also confirmed that Israeli forces threatened to evacuate the hospital while the patient departments were crowded with casualties, saying that the Israeli occupation army is working on implementing a plan to displace the citizens of Gaza from their land.

United Nations
The United Nations described the Israeli army’s designation of two routes for Gazans to evacuate the city south as a “crime against humanity”, and called for the cancellation of any such order.
Expulsion Plan of Gaza Residents
In a recent conversation between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the possibility of evacuating Palestinian civilians in Gaza to Egypt has been brought up. The White House is reportedly discussing this option with other countries to execute the plan.
Israeli occupation told #Palestinians in #Gaza to evacuate their homes and go to the south of the strip if they want to be safe, and when they arrived, an Israeli #aircraft bombed them.

Turkey
As the situation in Gaza worsens, Turkey has strongly opposed Israel’s attempt to displace over a million people from the Gaza Strip. Turkey’s Foreign Ministry has condemned the Israeli occupation government’s decision to demand that Gaza residents move south within 24 hours before a planned ground operation as cruel and inhumane. The statement also emphasized that forcing the 2.5 million residents of Gaza to displace in a limited area violates international law and has no regard for humanity.
