This is the best summary I could come up with:
A massive crowd of Palestinians huddled together as they try to flee southern Gaza can be seen from space, satellite images show.
Israeli forces ordered parts of southern Gaza to evacuate on Thursday, in a sign that Israel might be gearing up to invade the region following its ground attacks in the north, Forbes reported.
MAXAR Technologies released satellite images on Friday that the company says show a crowd of Palestinians gathered along Salah al Deen Road in southern Gaza as they try to escape via an evacuation corridor.
Since being forced out of the north, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been sheltering in the south, where most of the besieged territory’s 2.3 million residents are now crammed, the Associated Press reported.
A lack of fuel submerged the entire Gaza Strip in a phone and internet service blackout on Thursday, the territory’s main telecom provider said.
More than 1,200 people were killed in Israel when Hamas militants attacked the country on October 7, taking an additional 240 civilians hostage.
