Government media office denies Israeli fake propaganda

GAZA, (The Palestine Information Centre)The government media office denied reports that Israel had informed the UN that more than 1 million trapped Palestinians living in the north of the besieged enclave should move south within 24 hours ahead of an expected ground offensive.

Salama Marouf, head of the government media office, said the relocation warning was an attempt by Israel “to broadcast and pass on fake propaganda, aiming to sow confusion among citizens and harm our internal cohesion.”

He added: “We urge our citizens not to engage in these attempts.”

He further stressed that all governorates of the Gaza Strip, whether in the north or south of the Gaza Strip, are targeted by the Israeli warplanes.

Yedioth Ahronoth had earlier claimed that UN officials in Gaza “were informed by their liaison officers in the Israeli military that the entire population of the north of Wadi Gaza should relocate to southern Gaza within the next 24 hours.”

International bodies including the Red Cross have previously denied such reports.
