Israel says it has opened ‘temporary’ route for residents to flee Gaza City after launching ground offensive
- On Wednesday, Israel announced a temporary 48-hour evacuation route along Salah al-Din Street for Gaza City residents amid an intensified ground offensive.
- This evacuation route follows the launch of a major ground assault late Tuesday, after heavy bombardment of Gaza's main population center to oust Hamas.
- The Israeli military urged civilians to use only designated yellow-marked paths and stated Palestinians could cross freely without screening at checkpoints, while Hamas reportedly used violence to restrict movement.
- More than 350,000 people have fled south, with the military estimating 2,000–3,000 Hamas militants remain in central Gaza City, and Prime Minister Netanyahu said the campaign could take several months.
- Despite global criticism and UN accusations of genocide in Gaza, Israel rejects these charges and the temporary corridor aims to reduce congestion and improve safety during ongoing military operations.
