JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli army has told Palestinians to begin evacuating a part of the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip, along the border with Egypt, signaling that a ground invasion is imminent. That’s according to an Israeli Defense Force statement on Monday. People were told to move to Muwasi, an Israeli-declared humanitarian area near the coast. The army said it’s expanded assistance into the area, including field hospitals, tents, food and water. Israel has vowed to undertake a Rafah offensive for months to weed out remaining Hamas militants there. On Sunday, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant claimed Hamas wasn’t serious about a deal and warned of “a powerful operation in the very near future in Rafah.”
