Absolutely spot on.

“When you tell a million people to evacuate, but there’s no safe place to go to and no safe way to get there, that’s not an effective warning.”

@saribashi discusses Israel’s alarming Gaza evacuation order with @democracynow:

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

WHO statement on attack on Al Ahli Arab Hospital and reported large-scale casualties

WHO strongly condemns the attack on Al Ahli Arab Hospital in the north of the Gaza Strip. The hospital was operational, with patients, health and care givers, and internally displaced people sheltering there. Early reports indicate hundreds of fatalities and injuries.

The hospital was one of 20 in the north of the Gaza Strip facing evacuation orders from the Israeli military. The order for evacuation has been impossible to carry out given the current insecurity, critical condition of many patients, and lack of ambulances, staff, health system bed capacity, and alternative shelter for those displaced.

WHO calls for the immediate active protection of civilians and health care. Evacuation orders must be reversed. International humanitarian law must be abided by, which means health care must be actively protected and never targeted.

For the vast majority of people in Gaza, leaving the Palestinian enclave is not an option as this conflict escalates. 1 minute on why. https://t.co/BKGrSNRAzh

The international community should act to prevent a calamity.

The Israeli military's evacuation order in northern Gaza, where over a million people live, could have devastating humanitarian consequences.

“Hello world, this might be my last video as my phone battery is dying.”

Maha Hussaini (@MahaGaza), Middle East Eye correspondent in Gaza, has a message to the world.

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

The killings of hundreds of Israelis and Palestinians over the last several days reflect a flagrant disregard by all for international law.

So long as there is impunity for serious abuses, we will continue to see more repression and shedding of civilian blood.

[United Nations @UN]

We all have a role to play in stopping the spread of harmful misinformation online, which can result in people being left uninformed, unprotected & vulnerable during a crisis.

Before you share content online, pause to verify facts by asking basic questions.

This week, 24 humanitarians are being tried in #Greece for saving lives, in what many call the largest case of criminalisation of solidarity w/ people on the move in the #EU

We call on Greek prosecutors to request their acquittal. Saving lives is NOT a crime.
