Hundreds of people have left their homes carrying essential belongings with them to the displacement camps set up in Khan Yunis ahead of a wide military operation by Israel on Rafah town in Gaza, despite the growing pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to accept the proposed truce with Hamas and start a ceasefire.
