Following this morning’s rocket fire from the Khan Younis area in the southern Gaza Strip at central Israel, the IDF is calling on Palestinian civilians in the area to evacuate to the Israeli-designated humanitarian zone.
“Due to Hamas’s terrorist acts, which will be met with extreme force, you must evacuate these areas immediately and move to the humanitarian area,” Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman says, publishing a map of the zones that are to be evacuated.
The IDF in recent months has repeatedly issued evacuation orders for areas from which terrorists launched rockets at Israel.
Five rockets were launched in the attack this morning, with impacts in Kfar Chabad, where two people were lightly injured, and Holon.
