Good evening, I'm John Yang. In Gaza, tens of thousands of Palestinians are being forced to flee again.

The Israeli military has issued new and expanded evacuation orders amid signs that it's preparing to move into densely populated

Central Rafa.

About a third of Rafa has been evacuated, that's more than 300,000 people at all.

Many of them have already been moving several times in the past

seven months as they fled Israeli air bombardment. This time they're being told to go to

what the Israeli military is calling an expanded humanitarian area along the Mediterranean coast north of RAPA.

We received a call from the Army, a recorded call, asking us to evacuate the area we are in.

We are preparing to go to Milwaukee because they said it is a humanitarian area but we do not

know whether to go. I don't think it will be a safe area because the Israeli army does not have a safe area in Gaza.

They target everything.

And Central Gaza overnight air strikes killed at least 19 people, 16 of the women and children.

The UN warns that a full-scale Rafa invasion would further cripple humanitarian deliveries

of much-needed food, water, and fuel.

Ukrainian authorities say nearly 2,000 civilians have fled the fierce fighting.

The Russian push comes as Ukraine waits for promised Western ammunition and weapons to reach

the front line.

Heavy rains have triggered deadly flash floods on three continents.
