Zionist forces extended their forced evacuation orders to areas of Khan Younis (southern Gaza) on Sunday morning.
The Commissioner of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Middle East (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, reported on Sunday that more than 75,000 Palestinians have been displaced in the southwest region of Gaza during the last days.

According to the message posted on the X digital network, the Israeli authorities issued additional evacuation orders last night. Therefore, more residents have to relocate and dispose of most of their properties.
In this connection, the displaced persons from the Hamed City neighbourhood north of Khan Younis were instructed to evacuate the area immediately.
Lazzarini defined this phenomenon as a continuous and endless exodus. “Some can only take their children with them, others carry their whole life in a small bag,” he said.
The official referred to the conditions in shelters, which are already overcrowded with families. He also insisted that “the people of Gaza are trapped and have nowhere to go”.
Philippe Lazzarini also reported another attack on one, with dozens of deaths. “We cannot allow the unbearable to become the new norm. The more recurrent, the more we lose our collective humanity,” he said.
