Israel’s military has informed the United Nations that the entire population of northern Gaza should relocate to the southern half of the territory within 24 hours, the U.N. spokesman, Stéphane Dujarric, said late on Thursday night, adding that such a movement — involving over one million people — would lead to “devastating humanitarian consequences.”
“The same order applied to all U.N. staff and those sheltered in U.N. facilities — including schools, health centers and clinics,” Mr. Dujarric said.
The U.N. was told that the marker dividing the north from south was Wadi Gaza, the statement said.
The U.N. Security Council is scheduled to hold an emergency meeting on Friday afternoon in a closed consultation format
Yikes.
Israel has to defeat Hamas decisively - there is no alternative.
And quit shitting only on Israel for the current situation of Gaza and Westbank. Arafat walked away from a Palestinian state in 2000 and chose terror instead. The continued terror attacks CREATED the awful living conditions in Gaza.
What would be the point of this from a non fucked up standpoint? It’s not like that would help them get the fuckers who did this. All I can see is that they want to destroy everything if Palestinians somehow could completely comply. The fact that they can’t just means Israel wants to kill a bunch of people who are unable to get out.
Destroy the houses and then take the land. They are speeding up what they have already done since the beginning.
There was a video called something like “IDF destroys Hamas commando’s house”
This building was 12 floors. Nobody can convince me some random-ass Hamas grunt owned all that.
Seems it’s OK to kill dozens of families as long as you do it from two miles up. This is just revenge.
By the end of next week I doubt Gaza city will even exist.
Last time Israel invaded they spent significant time destroying tunnels. It’s dangerous work that leaves them exposed, so the less people around the better.
Someone needs to stop these vile fucks. Israel is going to kill millions if left unopposed.

Right. Killing thousands of civilians just to resolve a conflict that was escalated for some reason from both sides.
There’s only one noble side to be on in this, and that’s the side of civilians and humanitarians.
If you’re ever on the side of someone who is killing civilians, your brain made a left turn somewhere and your side is probably just as valid as the extremists on the other side.
Think about it. The only thing separating you from being the same monster you accuse those other ppl to be is being born on a different clump of earth.
What’s wrong with you?
Don’t forget there’s a lot of civilians in that 1million+ people.
And given that the average age in Gaza is 18 with 65% being under 24, that’s a lot of children as well.
Genocide is bad.
I think your rationality is lost on a fascist
muh everyone who disagrees with me is a fascist

People who openly applaud genocide are probably a tad bit fashy.
Genocide is bad.
Sure I feel sorry for the civilians but I am not going to support terrorists and none of this would’ve happened if it weren’t for Hamas
Still not the fault of the civilians nor is it justified in any way.
Is giving civilians a warning to move south somehow not justified? Would you rather have them massacred with no warning?
Well yea I’m glad there was at least some sort of warning, but how do you move over 1million people in 24 hours and where? But how does telling civilians to basically leave their homes to be destroyed justified? First they cut off necessities of life now they’re telling them to get lost.
it was always the plan at one time or another.
there is method to their provocation.
It sure is justified “in any way”. Not being justified at all would’ve looked like this:
- Palestinians do nothing
- Israel attacks
We all know this is not how it went down.
As far as I’m concerned the vast majority of the population (considering that over half is quite literally 18 years old and younger) did not do anything. Palestine =/ Hamas.
You don’t feel sorry for them you asshole. You just posted that it was a good thing they died up above.
While the Demographia report found Gaza City isn’t as packed as the world’s most dense cities, including Dhaka, Bangladesh, which has over 80,000 people per square mile, it’s more crowded than global cities, such as London, and three times more dense than Los Angeles, the most population-dense area in the US, according to the report.
They’re telling 1.1 Million people to move in 24hours in an area more dense than LA or London. In an area without power, fuel, or food.
They know it can’t be done and they don’t care. The rhetoric coming out of their government is pure genocide talk. One of the military guys got furious that anyone cared about Palestinian civilians.
I hope the US doesn’t support this or stay silent. We need to have the balls to stand up to allies when they’re in the wrong. The world said “not again” to the holocaust and now regularly looks the other way, and it’s time countries stop letting this shit happen.
Never again! Except for Tibetans, Uyghurs, First Nations in boarding schools/their forced sterilization, the Khmer Rouge, Pakistan/India/Bangladesh, North Korea, Rwanda, all the genocides by the Soviets, Bosnia…
Hundreds of millions of lives ended prematurely…
I agree with the overall sentiment, but some of these mentions are not accurate and imo devalues the importance of such important accusations (e.g. since when was NK genociding anyone?)
They run camps that are comparable to the Jewish camps during WW2, the only difference being that they’re doing it to themselves…
Evidence? Beyond “A guy said that a guy said that…”
Friendly reminder that Israel doesn’t really mind bombing “safe routes”
Time for a genocide. And no one’s going to stop them. Fucking hell.
Some of my friends have suggested that there might not be a Gaza to fight for independence for in a few years. I didn’t believe them, but now it definitely looks more possible…
And who’s fault is that? Hamas gave Israel the perfect excuse to do so and with good enough PR.
A tiny group within a population of over 2 million.
Honestly what the fuck are comments like this supposed to mean? You think they deserve to be slaughtered, down to the last child, because of what a small extremist group form the same region did? You know half the people in Gaza are under 18?
Do you think they all voted for this? Hamas took control after netanyahu created and funded them to destabilize the Gaza strip, this is a known fact that they’ve basically admitted. He made sure they were the only governing body that could e, ist so they could excuse anything they wanted to do to the gazans they keep in an open-air prison.
I hope the FBI or whatever the equivalent in your country is keeps pro-genocide people like you on a watch list.
59% of the “innocent” civilians supports Hamas.
You’re in favor of genocide for people supporting Hamas? Give your head a fucking shake.
No, I’m just saying a two state solution is clearly no longer posible and Israel warned them to leave.
No, you said, “59% of the “innocent” civilians supports Hamas.”
The scare quotes around the word innocent imply you think they’re not innocent.
Last 3 times they told people to move they bombed the destination. I’d stay put
Almost like they’re concentrating them in some sort of encampment
Hey what can I search to find this?
Where are the NGOs with boats in order to bring them to Europe?
Most likely blockaded by the Israeli Navy. Gaza is being isolated and besieged right now, that includes the coast. And yes, I notice the racist dog whistle you’re throwing. But this is not the place to bring this kind of passive-aggresive arguments.
To make one of the most densely populated areas in the world even more densely populated.
- Create excuse, 2. Retaliate (defend), 3. Expand. Conquest 101
So uh… When is the U.S. and Europe going to withdraw support for Israel? I mean, genocide doesn’t seem very in vogue nowadays, you know…
They will.
Soon.
Just like they stopped selling weapons to Saudi Arabia when they were found to be blowing up buses full of civilians in Yemen.
I mean, it would be hypocrisy otherwise.
Right?
RIGHT???!!
I mean, genocide doesn’t seem very in vogue nowadays
It kind of is though?
In the last 3 years I’ve counted about 6 different conflicts that look like genocides or incipient genocide attempts to me (based on Raphael Lemkin’s original definition of the term).
There also is the sentiment of killing refugees at the borders or let them drown. That seems to be getting more and more popular in Europe
And the US!

Your scenario doesn’t line up. Ukraine has deliberately gone out of its way to avoid civilian casualties, avoid even the appearance of a civilian casualties, avoid bombing anything that looks remotely like a civilian target.
In your scenario it would be more akin to Russia invading Ukraine, and the NATO wins militarily, pushes the entire Russian population into the Saint Petersburg b Metro area, then bombs buildings because since everyone is in Saint Petersburg so are the soldiers.
Looks like they don’t want to give Hamas time to move their weapons. Whoever came up with this method should be celebrated.
It will force Hamas to give up on hunkering down with their human shields. This counters that, and gives the human shields a chance to escape from the death cult.
A very slim chance. 24 hours is very short notice, and the circumstances make it very difficult to relocate so many people.
It defeats the purpose if you give Hamas time to organize. Getting rid of Hamas ASAP is the surest way to minimize civilian casualties.
“gives the human shields a chance to escape from the death cult” is a WILD way to describe how millions of civilians suddenly have less than 24 hours to move south (where? Who cares?) lest they get absolutely bombed to fuck.
The alternative clearly wasn’t working. Any time they telegraphed a bombing, Hamas would force them to stay in the building to die so useful idiots would keep criticizing Israel for the death toll.
Now there’s no excuse.
where the fuck should they go
