Palestinians have been fleeing districts to the east of Gaza’s second city of Khan Younis after Israel issued evacuation orders.
Overnight and into the morning, witnesses reported multiple Israeli strikes in and around Khan Younis. A medical source and the Palestinian Red Crescent said eight people had been killed and more than 30 wounded.
Patients and medical staff have also been leaving the European Gaza hospital in the area, as the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza told them to evacuate.
The Israeli military has not itself issued an evacuation order for the hospital.
The Red Cross is reported to have helped patients in the process of transferring to another hospital. The UN reports that 250,000 people in Southern Gaza have been affected by Israel’s evacuation order.
