@lzg why not? Would be a shame for the minority of palestinians who don't support HAMAS to die en masse.

Given that Israelis are clearly planning land operation of retaliation, I think that it's not only logical, but moral to evacuate. I'm puzzled Egypt didn't offer civilians a way to evacuate, ngl.

My experience (sadly, considerable by now) with coordinating evacuations shows that 24h is plenty to evacuate, especially if the refugees are assisted by someone with a vehicle.
