The UN agency for Palestinian refugees said Tuesday that nearly 450,000 people have been displaced from Rafah since Israel began issuing evacuation orders for the south Gaza city eight days ago.

“UNRWA estimates that nearly 450,000 people have been forcibly displaced from Rafah since May 6,” the agency said on X, formerly Twitter, without specifying where they fled to.
