On August 8, local time, the Israel Defense Forces issued another evacuation order, requiring people in several areas in the southern Gaza Strip, including some residents in the eastern and central parts of Khan Yunis, to quickly evacuate to the so-called "humanitarian safety zone."

After the Israeli army issued an evacuation order, the local people of Khan Yunis had to once again embark on the road to the next so-called "humanitarian safe zone". However, the continuous evacuation and migration could not allow the Gazans to avoid the sudden artillery fire. They couldn't help asking: If the "safe zone" does not exist, where else can they go?

On the 8th, thousands of people in Khan Yunis had to use various means of transportation as much as possible and bring their families to the nearby Mawasi area. Mawasi is what the Israeli army calls a "humanitarian safety zone", but the area has been hit by Israeli air strikes many times before. Since the new round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict has dragged on, many people in the Gaza Strip have experienced multiple evacuations and have been to many so-called "safe zones". Some people say that there is no real "safe zone" in the Gaza Strip because they have all been destroyed.

Farah, a displaced person: The Israeli army issued an evacuation order and warned us, and they distributed leaflets, so we evacuated and left the area that was already crowded with displaced people. The last time they (the Israeli army) warned us to leave, they attacked one of our houses that was already partially destroyed. Now the house is completely destroyed and we are homeless.
