JERUSALEM, Sept 13 — The Israeli military said today that more than 250,000 people have left Gaza City for other parts of the territory over the past few weeks, since it intensified its assault on Gaza’s largest urban centre.

“According to IDF (military) estimates, more than a quarter of a million residents of Gaza City have moved out of the city for their own safety,” the military’s Arabic-language spokesman Colonel Avichay Adraee said on X. — AFP
