Israel's evacuation order for Gaza could breach international law: UN

The United Nations human rights office said on Tuesday that Israel's siege of Gaza and its evacuation order for the north of the enclave could amount to a forcible transfer of civilians and be in breach of international law. On the 11th day of Israel-Hamas war, Palestinians have reported intense bombardments near two towns in southern Gaza, where Israel had ordered civilians to seek refuge. Mediators are pressing for an agreement to let aid in and refugees with foreign passports out, and thousands of people trying to escape Gaza are gathered in Rafah, which has the territory's only border crossing to Egypt.
