HRW says forcing over 1 million displaced civilians in Rafah to again evacuate ‘catastrophic’

RAMALLAH: Human Rights Watch (HRW) has warned on Monday that forcing over one million Palestinian displaced civilians in Rafah to evacuate again amidst reports of a possible Israeli military ground invasion would have 'catastrophic consequences.' The organization said in a statement that 'forcing the over one million displaced Palestinians in Rafah to again evacuate without a safe place to go would be unlawful and would have catastrophic consequences.' "There is nowhere safe to go in Gaza," it added. "The international community should take action to prevent further atrocities," it concluded. Source: Palestine news and Information Agency – WAFA
