IDF Spokesperson in Arabic Avichai Adraee appealed to residents of the Gaza Strip and informed them of open routes out of the neighborhood and the times when the IDF would hold its fire in the area to allow the evacuation of the war zone.
A message sent to the residents reads: “Population of the Gaza Strip, the fighting and the military advance of the defense forces in the area of Khan Yunis does not allow the movement of civilians via the Salah al-Dain route in the sections north and east of Khan Yunis. On these sections, the Salah al-Din route is a battlefield and it is therefore highly dangerous to reach it!”
“The IDF will allow humanitarian movement of civilians via the bypass route located west of Khan Yunis. Trips from the Rafah and Khan Yunis area in the direction of Deir el-Balah and the central camps will be available on the following routes: al-Rashid “al-Bahr” – al-Shuhada at Deir al-Balah. A local and temporary tactical cessation of military activity for humanitarian purposes at al-Salem neighborhood in Rafah from 10:00-14:00, for the purpose of supply.”
