    How would people even effectively or even know to evacuate when Israel cut off electricity?

      I think Israel sent a tone of leaflets and I’d guess word of such a thing would spread quickly.

      I have no idea, but they got the information. I know that all the hospitals have generators so perhaps the civilians do also.

      Journalists and people are managing to record and document what is happening inside Gaza, so they would have received the information online.

        You’re guessing. Gaza has greater than 50% unemployment, and those that can afford generators can’t get gas because all supplies are cut. Journalists bring batteries when they come into Gaza, not the same as what residents can do.

          Some of the richer families have their own generators. So they let people charge their phones and power banks for two hours a day.

          Most of the information about what is happening inside Gaza is coming from citizens inside. They share what they can but meta shadow block them

        I know that all the hospitals have generators so perhaps the civilians do also.

        Hospitals also have x-ray machines so perhaps the civilians do also?
