The IDF Spokesman Twitter account for Arabic has published guidance for Gazans to evacuate along two main roads between 10am and 4pm today (October 14th).

Translation courtesy of @hassanmckusick:

#Urgent Important statement for residents of Gaza City In recent days, we have appealed to you to leave Gaza City to the south of Wadi Gaza in order to preserve your safety. I would like to inform you that the IDF will allow movement on the indicated streets without any harm between the hours of 10:00 - 16:00. For your safety, take advantage of the short time to move towards the south - from Beit Hanoun to Khan Yunis. If you care about yourself and your loved ones, go south as instructed. Rest assured that Hamas leaders have taken care of themselves and are taking cover from strikes in the region. Residents of Al-Shati, Al-Rimal and West Al-Zaytoun will also be allowed to move on Daldul and Al-Sanaa Streets towards my street By At Saladin and the sea

    Fuck Israel for doing this. Displacing an entire population of people. I’d bet money that MOSAD knew about this attack (maybe not to this degree), but expected that it’d give them all the political ammunition that they’d need to fuck over Palestinians even worse than they already have it.

      I don’t think they did, at least not the extent of it. It was a massive embarrassment to Netanyahu. 86% of jewish Israelis blame him for the attacks and more than half are asking him to resign.

        Egypt and America both warned them something was coming and that they’d noticed buildups on the border. You think it’s possible to receive those warnings (the Egyptian one was called into Netanyahu personally by the head of Egyptian intelligence) and not notice that the largest terrorist attack in history is about to pop off in the most surveilled location on earth? Come the fuck on. They knew. They miscalculated.

      This is a major intelligence fuckup. Bibi is done for.

      Fuck both Hammas and Israel politics for this. Hammas built tunnles under civilian infrastructure (hospital, apartment buildings, kindergarten) in Gaza Strip and hides there.

      Shin Bet (Mossad but domestic issues) DID actually warn the Likud party and Ben Netanyahu that the increased violence supported by the Israeli state against Palestinians in the West Bank (Al Aqsa Mosque, Jenin etc.) were going to increase tensions and risk a Hamas response.

      They were largely ignored, mocked, or slandered as deep state arab supporters. Make no mistake that this is not only does this war serve Likud and Bibi, but also their long term interests in cleansing the west bank of Palestinians.

      Also, Likud and Bibi’s successive govts took multiple policies to push Hamas into conflict with the Palestinian Authority (the actual elected govt of the West Bank) and in turn keep their political modus operandi against Palestinians from weakening.

        On top of that, Egyptian military intelligence warned Mossad about an imminent invasion and Mossad ignored them. The Israelis are going to be asking their government a lot of very hard questions over the best decade.

        I’m sure one of the largest and most advanced intelligence services in the world isn’t operating in a neighbouring territory which their bosses have significant geopolitical interests

          Idk what to tell you, that’s just not their job. Since Palestinian affeirs were considered domestic historically and therefore the Shin Bet handles them. It stayed that way when Israel withdrew from Gaza

            Oh, the point being Mossad vs Shin Bet pedantics.

            I mean, sure, but it’s like how people might use MI6/MI5 or FBI/CIA interchangeably. I wouldn’t get too deep about it.
