Media outlets in Gaza publish footage showing hundreds of protesters in Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Strip, demonstrating against Hamas and calling for an end to the war.
Protesters chant: “Stop the war and the displacement! Hamas out!”
This marks the first anti-Hamas protest in Khan Younis in several weeks. Sporadic demonstrations have occurred in the Strip’s northern parts in recent weeks.
Earlier today, the IDF issued a wide evacuation order for all of Khan Younis, saying the entire area is now a “combat zone.”
