The IDF called for the immediate evacuation of the southern neighborhoods of Khan Yunis following the interception of three rockets launched from the southern Gaza city on Saturday morning.
The IDF's Iron Dome air defense system intercepted three rockets launched after sirens sounded in the Nir Yitzhak, Sufa, and Holit areas.
'Final warning' on evacuations
The Israeli military's Arabic-language spokesperson, Col. Avichay Adraee, issued on Saturday a "final warning" of evacuation for the Khan Yunis neighborhoods of Qizan al-Najjar, Qizan Abu Rashwan, al-Salam, al-Manara, al-Qurain, Maan, al-Batn al-Sameen, Jurt al-Lot, and al-Fakhar.

"Once again, Palestinian terrorist organizations are launching their senseless rockets among civilians and bear full responsibility for their suffering.
"For your safety, you must move immediately west to the known shelters in Al-Mawasi."
