Al Jazeera is condemning threats by the Israeli army against the family of its Gaza correspondent Youmna ElSayed. On Monday, ElSayed’s husband received a call from Israeli forces warning family members to immediately leave their home or be killed in a bombardment. The threat comes just days after an Israeli strike killed 12 family members of Al Jazeera’s Gaza bureau chief Wael al-Dahdouh, including his two children and grandson. Al Jazeera said in a statement, “Israel’s actions continue with impunity as they attempt to silence the messenger.” Democracy Now! spoke to Youmna ElSayed last week. Youmna ElSayed: “Homes were targeted. Hospitals were targeted. In these same areas that people were asked to evacuate, hundreds of families who had evacuated from the north and from Gaza City were killed in those bombings. When we say there is no safe place in Gaza, we’re not lying.”
Actually, warning civilians you’re going to bomb their families and turn their farmland to rubble, then slowly condense the remaining population into concentration camps for decades until they can finally be wiped out under protection of the US and EU is still a genocide.
Concentration camps don’t generally let people voluntarily leave. Egypt lets Gazans out, ~300 per day, while the Rafah gate is open.
Lol well I don’t believe in conspiracy theories

Cutting supplies first, bombing places and making transportation harder, THEN ordering mass evacuation isn’t exactly the kind of thing “good guys” do. Not to mention that these people can only move some 30km south before being met with a wall
That’s how wars are fought, and wars are indeed bad.
Threatening to murder journalists is what the good guys do
israel tells people to go south or they’ll get bombed, and then israel bombs the people in the south. Amazing!
