The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has denounced the repeated displacement pursuant to an evacuation order by the Israeli military to civilians in northeast Khan Younis, Al Jazeera reports.

The UN agency said Monday’s evacuation order gave “no time” for civilians to know from which areas they were required to leave or where they should go.

In a statement, the OHCHR said: “Despite the evacuation order, Israeli military operations continued in and around the area unabated. The evacuation order also covered parts of Salah al-Deen Road, which has been one of two main routes vital for the transport and distribution of aid, raising concerns that delivery and provision of desperately needed humanitarian assistance will be further reduced or prevented.”

“There is no safe place in Gaza,” the OHCHR said. “Confusing mass evacuation orders issued by a party that is concurrently increasing the intensity of its attacks on the areas from which evacuation is ordered and through which people must move place civilians in more danger and may increase the harm to civilians.”
