The Israeli military has ordered Palestinians to leave a wide sweep of land to the east of the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis after rockets were fired towards Israel.
People in the area first received audio messages telling them to leave, before the Israeli military posted a message in Arabic repeating the warning on social media.
It comes after about 20 rockets were launched towards Israel in the heaviest such attack in months, with a number intercepted and others landing in open areas with no injuries reported.
Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) said it launched the barrage in response to Israeli “crimes”.
