i24 News – The Israeli military has announced that Palestinians will be allowed to travel on the main Gaza Strip highway, Salah al-Din Road, for a period of three hours on Saturday.

This initiative is part of the Israeli military’s three-week-long campaign aimed at encouraging residents to evacuate southward, away from the areas that are currently the focal points of the conflict.

The designated time for passage on Salah a-Din Road is between 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM (1100 GMT and 1400).

In a social media post written in Arabic, the military emphasizes the importance of heeding their instructions to head south, emphasizing that it is for the safety and well-being of both the residents and their loved ones.
