The Israeli military has asked people from northern Gaza to evacuate southwards using two routes between 10 am in the morning to 4 pm in the evening, a spokesman said on Saturday.
In a statement posted in Arabic on X, Israel Defence Forces (IDF) spokesman Avichay Adraee said the routes can be used between the said period of time "without any harm, reported a media channel.
Those living in Gaza City have been advised to move south from Beit Hanoun to Khan Yunis, ahead of a potential ground offensive by the Israeli army, Adraee said. People living near the beach and west of Olive will also be allowed to move on Daldul and Al-Sana Streets towards Salah Al-Din and Al-Bahr, he added.
On Friday, the IDF had called on "the evacuation of all civilians of Gaza City from their homes southwards for their own safety, and protection and move to the area south of the Wadi Gaza".
