The Financial Times highlights the severe impact of Israeli military evacuation orders in Gaza, where over 80% of the territory is now designated as military zones, exacerbating the suffering of 2.1 million residents. Israel’s plan, which aims to confine Gazans to a small area in the south, raises concerns of ethnic cleansing amidst warnings of overcrowding and lack of basic resources, with civilians potentially facing living conditions as cramped as a sofa. As Israeli officials express intentions to permanently displace Palestinians, the humanitarian crisis deepens, leaving little hope for the future.
