The IDF Spokesperson in Arabic posted a new, expanded evacuation map for residents in specified Khan Yunis neighborhoods today (Monday) to move to the al-Mawasi humanitarian zone.
The IDF said that it would be operating in force in those areas following rocket fire from the designated area at the Gaza Perimeter.
The IDF Spokesperson announced earlier today that some 15 rockets were identified from the southern Gaza Strip, specifically from Khan Yunis.
Some of the rockets were successfully intercepted, while others successfully landed in the Re'im and the Gama Junction.
According to Magen David Adom, a 37 year old man was lightly injured in his lower body from one of the rockets and has been sent to Barzilai Hospital for treatment.
