Gaza war: 150,000 people flee Khan Younis, UN says | BBC News


More than 150,000 people have fled the Gazan city of Khan Younis since Monday, two UN agencies have said.

Khan Younis has been the focus of a new Israeli military offensive, which it says is aimed at combating “efforts by Hamas to reassemble its forces there".

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) issued an evacuation order for eastern parts of Khan Younis on Monday.

It also reduced the size of the designated humanitarian zone which it claimed was being used by Hamas fighters to carry out "terrorist activity and rocket fire".

At least 80 Palestinians have been killed in the area since the Israeli operation began, according to figures from Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry.
