Palestinians in Gaza tell Al Jazeera they will refuse Israeli orders to flee their homes after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened that Gaza’s population “will be moved” as Israel prepares to launch a new expanded ground offensive. Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 52,615 Palestinians and wounded 118,752, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The Government Media Office updated the death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023, and more than 200 were taken captive. (Aljazeera)
