STORYLINE:
Palestinian families fled their homes and shelters in Khan Younis on Tuesday following an evacuation order from the Israeli army.
Families were seen travelling in trucks, cars, tractors and donkey carts, often seated with or on top of their belongings. Others were seen leaving on foot.
One of the many displaced Palestinians forced to leave, Khaled Daoud, described the process as "torture, it is severe torture."
"We are physically and psychologically exhausted. I do not know what more to say," he added.
The Israel-Hamas war began when Palestinian militants stormed into Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting 251. Hamas is still holding 58 hostages, around a third of them believed to be alive.
Israel’s military campaign has killed over 54,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry, which does not say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants. The ministry is led by medical professionals but reports to the Hamas-run government. Its toll is seen as generally reliable by U.N. agencies and independent experts, though Israel has challenged its numbers.
Israel says it has killed around 20,000 militants, without providing evidence.
