Intense fighting in and around Khan Younis, says Unrwa

Thousands of people are fleeing further south to Rafah, where already 1.4 million are sheltering, as "intense fighting" hits Khan Younis, Unrwa said in a post to X, formerly Twitter.

"Intensified airstrikes on Rafah are also causing people to flee Rafah to middle Gaza. People are on verge of famine in the north. There is no sanctuary," Unrwa posted.
