The United Nations expressed deep concern Tuesday over an Israeli evacuation order for a large swath of the southern Gaza Strip, which it said affects tens of thousands of civilians.
"Yesterday's order for evacuation of 117 square kilometers in Khan Younis and Rafah governorates applies to about a third of the Gaza Strip - making it the largest such order since October, when residents were ordered to evacuate northern Gaza," Stephane Dujarric, spokesperson for U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, told reporters.
