Israeli forces killed dozens more Palestinians in Gaza and continued to destroy infrastructure in Gaza City, with Prime Minister Netanyahu issuing a direct threat to residents of the city, telling them to “leave now” and that they have been warned.
Hamas said in a statement that Netanyahu’s boasting about the continued destruction of residential high-rise buildings in Gaza City, most recently the as-Salam tower, represents “one of the most heinous images of sadism and criminality”.
A shooting attack in occupied East Jerusalem killed at least six people. In response, Israeli forces carried out violent raids across the occupied West Bank, killing two 14-year-old Palestinian boys and wounding others.
Israel struck the vicinity of Syria’s central Homs city, the coastal city of Latakia, and the historic city of Palmyra, Syrian state-affiliated media says.
Hamas: Netanyahu’s threat to people of Gaza City ‘criminal’
The Palestinian group says in a statement that the Israeli prime minister’s boasting about the continued destruction of residential high-rise buildings in Gaza City, most recently the as-Salam Tower, as we reported earlier, represents “one of the most heinous images of sadism and criminality”.

“When the terrorist Netanyahu addresses the people of Gaza City, saying, ‘We warned you, so leave from there’, he is openly engaging in a fully-fledged crime of forced displacement carried out under the pressure of bombing, massacres, starvation, and threats of murder,” the statement reads.

As we reported earlier, Netanyahu issued a direct threat to the people of Gaza City, telling them to “leave now” ahead of the arrival of Israeli ground troops.

The forcible transfer or deportation of a population is considered a war crime under the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, unless strictly justified by necessity.

Israel has made it no secret that it intends to displace the entire population of Gaza City south.
