The move could derail international efforts towards a ceasefire.
Palestinians are fleeing from the eastern side of the southern Gaza city of Rafah after the Israeli army ordered them to evacuate
Israel has described Rafah as the last significant Hamas stronghold after some seven months of war, and has repeatedly said the invasion is necessary to defeat the Islamic militant group, which sparked the current conflict with an attack on Israel on October 7. The spokesman said Israel was preparing a “limited scope operation”, and would not say whether this was the beginning of a broader invasion of the city. Israel did not formally announce the launch of its current ground invasion in Gaza.Tensions escalated on Sunday when Hamas fired rockets at Israeli troops positioned on the border with Gaza near Israel’s main crossing for delivering badly needed humanitarian aid, killing four soldiers.
The UN agency that has helped millions of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank for decades warned Monday of devastating consequences of a Rafah offensive, including more civilian suffering and deaths.
