The Israeli military is calling on Palestinians in additional neighborhoods of northern Gaza to evacuate the area, as it presses on with its operation against Hamas in Jabaliya.

Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, publishes a list of the new zones that need to be evacuated alongside the announcement.

Over the weekend, the IDF issued an evacuation warning for Jabaliya, before it pushed into the area. The latest warning covers the al-Atatra and Salatin areas.

Palestinian civilians are told to move to shelters west of Gaza City.

The IDF said earlier today that it had expanded its operation against Hamas in Jabaliya, which was launched after it identified terror operatives regrouping there.
