The U.N. says the Israeli military told it that all of northern Gaza has 24 hours to move south. - eviltoast
A U.N. spokesman said such a movement would turn “what is already a tragedy into a calamitous situation.”

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

    Even if it is, speculating about that without any solid evidence just makes your argument seem weak imo.

    Bad things happen and there are those who are more than willing to take advantage of those events. Doesn’t matter if its tsunamis or genocides: there’s people looking to exploit the situation for their own gain and have the power to do so at the suffering of huge numbers of people. That doesn’t mean resort business owners are making artificial earthquakes.
