The IDF issues an evacuation warning for Gaza City’s eastern Shejaiya neighborhood and nearby areas.

In a post on X, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, Col. Avichay Adraee, publishes a map of the area that is to be evacuated, saying that the military will soon operate “with great force” there to “destroy terror infrastructure.”

Civilians are called to head for shelters in western Gaza City.

Footage shows dozens of Gazans fleeing Shejaiya following the evacuation order.
