LONDON, Friday, July 12, 2024 (WAFA) – Amnesty International said that Palestinian civilians have faced multiple waves of displacement due to Israel’s relentless nine-month onslaught on the occupied Gaza Strip and the repeated evacuation orders, stating: “Such orders amount to unlawful transfer, a war crime.”

“This week Israeli forces issued yet another sweeping “evacuation” order for Gaza City, ordering all its inhabitants to flee south,” said Amnesty International in a post on X.

“In the absence of any guarantees to return after the end of hostilities and with no safe and dignified accommodations for the displaced, such orders amount to unlawful transfer, a war crime.”

The Israeli army demanded residents in Gaza City move toward the town of Az-Zawayda and the city of Deir al-Balah, in the middle of the Strip, warning that Gaza City would remain a dangerous combat zone.
