America wants Egypt to take in an exodus of Palestinian refugees
The warning is dire, its implications almost biblical. Just before midnight on October 12th Israel told the United Nations that the whole of northern Gaza, home to roughly 1.1m people, should be evacuated within 24 hours. It then issued the same ultimatum directly to Gazans, telling them to flee south of Wadi Gaza, a riverbed that bisects the territory. “You will be able to return to Gaza City only when another announcement permitting it is made,” the army said in a statement.
Both may have been damaged by Israeli air strikes . Most Gazans are too poor to afford private cars, relying instead on a limited fleet of private taxis and buses. Petrol is in short supply. If civilians can reach the south, it is unclear where they will shelter. Southern Gaza has built-up areas around Rafah and Khan Younis, but large parts of it are farmland. Civilians may end up sleeping rough in fields, with little access to food or clean water.
