Israel’s military early Friday called for all Gaza City civilians—more than 1 million people—to relocate to the enclave’s southern regions within the next 24 hours.

It comes as the United Nations disclosed early Friday morning that it had received communication from the Israeli military and the Israeli Ministry of Defense to instruct the Palestinians in northern Gaza to relocate south.
