Gaza City, November 10 (RHC)-- The White House has announced that Israel agreed to "pause" its assault on northern Gaza for four hours per day to allow civilians to flee south. The U.N. estimates that on Thursday alone, 50,000 people were forced to travel on foot along what Israel’s military is calling a “humanitarian corridor” -- and what Palestinians and the international community are calling a forced relocation that will lead to Israel's military occupation.

Many of them compared the mass expulsion to the 1948 Nakba that saw about 700,000 Palestinians pushed out of their homes and turned into refugees during the creation of the state of Israel.   One of the migrants, Um Hassan, told reporters: “What do things look like behind us? Destruction and death.  It has become here a second Nakba for the Palestinians.  What more does the world want?”

He went on to says that the Beach refugee camp was burning.  "The whole northern and western areas of Gaza are, as well.  They’re driving people to schools and scaring them so they would leave. What we see today is a plan for a second Nakba.”

“Nakba” means “catastrophe” in Arabic.
