(250318) -- GAZA, March 18, 2025 (Xinhua) -- Palestinians fleeing from the northern Gaza Strip city of Beit Hanoun are seen on a road in Gaza City, on March 18, 2025. Israel carried out deadly bombardments across the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, killing more than 400 people, as it vowed to intensify attacks if Hamas did not release the hostages still held in the enclave. After the deadly attacks, the Israeli army issued evacuation orders, prompting Palestinians to flee in chaos. Israeli military's Arabic-language spokesperson, Avichay Adraee, called on civilians to move west. A map he posted on social media platform X marked in red the entire perimeter around Gaza, designating it as a "dangerous combat zone." The targeted areas included the city of Beit Hanoun, the town of Khuza'a, and the Abasan suburbs of Khan Younis. (Photo by Mahmoud Zaki/Xinhua)
