Scoop: Israel tells UN to evacuate the northern Gaza Strip within 24 hours
AXIOS ^ | 10/12/2023 | Barak Ravid

Posted on 10/12/2023 7:52:10 PM PDT by bitt

The Israeli Ministry of Defense and the IDF notified the UN just before midnight local time to evacuate its staff and notify Palestinians living north of Wadi Gaza that they should evacuate to the southern part of the Gaza Strip in the next 24 hours, two sources with direct knowledge.

The big picture: More than 1 million Palestinians live in this area. The message could be a signal that the Israeli military is preparing for an imminent ground operation.

The sources told Axios that the IDF's reason for the notification was in order for civilians not to be hurt by the military's actions and operations. Driving the news: The Israeli military has carried out a heavy bombardment of Gaza since Hamas militants attacked Israel on Saturday.

It's also imposed a "complete siege" on the enclave, which is home to more than 2 million Palestinians. What they're saying: "Today, just before midnight local time, team leaders of the UN Office of the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and the Department of Safety and Security in Gaza were informed by their liaison officers in the Israeli military that the entire population of Gaza north of Wadi Gaza should relocate to southern Gaza within the next 24 hours," a UN spokesperson told Axios.

"This amounts to approximately 1.1 million people. The same order applied to all UN staff and those sheltered in UN facilities – including schools, health centers and clinics," the spokesperson said. "The United Nations considers it impossible for such a movement to take place without devastating humanitarian consequences," the spokesperson added.

Gaza is not an enclave. It has a open sea border along with a border with two nations.

“And to where?”

Khuzestan. Iran loves them, after all.

It would be difficult to get 1.1 million minimal-IQ people pointed in the same direction in 24 hours, let alone moving together.

IMHO Fat chance since everything the UN does (unless it is vetoed) related to Israel is anti-Israel. We’ll see.

IDF did this is Gulf War I. They told NSA/Geospatial Intel to look at xxxx coordinates. What we saw was Jericho II IRBMs out on their TEL launchpads fueled and ready to go.

THAT is when coalition forces stopped everything and went SCUD hunting.

Israel was VERY well prepared to go nuclear if a CBRNE event was launched against Israel.

It should be extremely obvious that for the near future, one-sided following of UN resolutions is not an IDF’s priority.

It is only 25 miles from north Gaza to south Gaza, a bus token ride away. IMHO, it appears to me that the game plan is to offer them food, medical, and water and tent and sleeping bags there a few days to a week or two and eliminate the starving people from the siege narrative while they try to isolate Hamas from the civilian population. Yup, uncomfortable and inconvenient. But, hey, Israel didn’t start this war and didn’t dance in the streets like many civilians they want to go south to stay safe. It would probably take 3-5 days to have a bus evacuation southward while many would drive or even walk there. The big problem is either Hamas will imbed themselves with the southbound crowd or that a lot of civilians will stay north and act as a shield to provide Hamas propagandists with the civilian genocide from the skies story line for the world media.

UPDATE: Israel replies, "`Devastating` consequences are the intent".
