Today, on March 21, 2025, the Israeli military has issued an immediate evacuation order to residents of southern communities in Gaza as they prepare for an impending offensive. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announcement warns: “To all individuals located within the zone defined by the communities of Al Salatin, Al Karama, and Al Aouda in Gaza, this is a warning before an impending strike.” IDF spokesperson Avi Sadeh stated in a post on platform X, “Terrorist organizations are once again launching rockets from populated areas… For your safety, move immediately south towards designated shelters.” Meanwhile, Turkey condemned what it described as an ‘Israeli attack’ against a hospital in the Gaza Strip’s Lod area, which was built with Turkish funding, accusing Israel of deliberate targeting. The Turkish Foreign Ministry strongly criticized the destruction of the Turkish-Palestinian friendship hospital by Israel in its official statement.
