Israel ordered people out of swathes of the main southern city in the Gaza Strip on Monday (December 4) as it pressed its ground campaign deep into the south, sending desperate residents fleeing even as it dropped bombs on areas where it told them to go.

Israel has deployed its troops into southern Gaza, stating that the war will now cover the entire Palestinian enclave and include for the first time its largest infantry brigade for the growing ground offensive.

After destroying several of Hamas’ headquarter stations across northern Gaza, Israeli troops and tanks were spotted Monday in the enclave’s southern half, where hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been evacuated to.

Humanitarian groups said they have run out of advice for the refugees fleeing the violence — which started when the Palestinian terror group launched a surprise attack on Israel on Oct. 7, killing more than 1,200 people, mainly civilians, and taking dozens more hostage.

“We have nothing to tell them,” Thomas White, director of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, said of the refugees, noting that some of Israel’s retaliatory strikes are occurring in Khan Younis and Rafah, where nearly one million people have run to.

Israeli officials have said they are doing their best to limit civilian casualties as they aim to solely target Hamas, which has been known to hide everywhere from hospitals to kindergartens to try to dodge the enemy while vowing to destroy Israel.
