Gaza Interior ministry calls on people in north to ignore evacuation orders

Gaza's Interior Ministry has urged Palestinian residents in the north of the strip to ignore Israeli instructions to flee to the already overcrowded "humanitarian" zones in the south.

“Israeli claims about the presence of safe zones in southern Gaza are lies as Israel commits crimes and massacres in all areas of the enclave,” the ministry said in a statement. “We call on citizens in northern Gaza to ignore Israeli threats.”
