Recent reports from the UN's main relief agency in Gaza indicate that approximately 360,000 individuals have fled the southern city of Rafah over the past week. This mass exodus comes in response to Israeli evacuation calls preceding a planned major ground offensive. The situation has escalated rapidly, with an additional 60,000 people leaving Rafah since Sunday alone, as reported by UNRWA.
Moreover, in north Gaza, ongoing bombardments and evacuation orders have further exacerbated displacement and fear among thousands of families. UNRWA emphasized the lack of safety and the urgent need for a ceasefire to protect civilians in the region.
