Israel-Hamas Conflict: Israel Urges 1 Million Gaza Residents to Evacuate

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the evacuation of 1 million people in Gaza as the army prepares for a potential ground invasion. Israel has been conducting airstrikes in response to a cross-border attack by Hamas militants, resulting in over 1,300 deaths. The UN has warned that the mass evacuation order could have devastating humanitarian consequences and called on Israel to rescind it. Hamas has urged Palestinians to ignore the order, but many are hesitant to leave due to fears of nowhere being safe in the territory. The week-long conflict has escalated tensions in the region, with Israel also trading fire with Lebanon's Hezbollah militant group.
