The Israeli army has distanced itself from comments made by a brigadier general that ground forces are getting closer to "the complete evacuation" of the northern Gaza Strip and residents will not be allowed to return home.
In a media briefing on Tuesday night, the Israel Defense Forces' Brig Gen Itzik Cohen told Israeli reporters that "there is no intention of allowing the residents of the northern Gaza Strip to return". He added that humanitarian aid would be allowed to "regularly" enter the south of the territory but there were "no more civilians left" in the north.
International humanitarian law experts have said that such actions would amount to the war crimes of forcible transfer and the use of food as a weapon.
