The Israeli military has ordered another mass evacuation around Khan Younis in Gaza, citing upcoming operations against Palestinian rocket fire.

Khan Younis, the second-largest city in Gaza, faced significant destruction earlier this year due to air and ground assaults. The recent evacuation order adds to Gaza's humanitarian struggles.

The assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran has heightened regional tensions, prompting global leaders to push for peace. Human Rights Watch reports civilian casualties amid the ongoing Israeli military operations, while international bodies investigate potential war crimes.
