Rafah campaign could displace population

THE International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) warned of displacement of the civilian population amid Israel's large-scale military operation in Rafah.

It said that the situation is especially alarming given the over 1 million displaced Palestinians currently residing in the southern Gaza Strip.
