The IDF Spokesman Twitter account for Arabic has published guidance for Gazans to evacuate along two main roads between 10am and 4pm today (October 14th).

#Urgent Important statement for residents of Gaza City In recent days, we have appealed to you to leave Gaza City to the south of Wadi Gaza in order to preserve your safety. I would like to inform you that the IDF will allow movement on the indicated streets without any harm between the hours of 10:00 - 16:00. For your safety, take advantage of the short time to move towards the south - from Beit Hanoun to Khan Yunis. If you care about yourself and your loved ones, go south as instructed. Rest assured that Hamas leaders have taken care of themselves and are taking cover from strikes in the region. Residents of Al-Shati, Al-Rimal and West Al-Zaytoun will also be allowed to move on Daldul and Al-Sanaa Streets towards my street By At Saladin and the sea
Jerboa doesn’t show the link and the picture together: https://twitter.com/AvichayAdraee/status/1713065991511388610
I take no position, if this is good or bad. I have my opinion but I don’t want any arguments with either side, so I just posted objective facts.
I was just curious on the distance and figured other people would also want to know.
Your link is assuming more or less perfect conditions, right now probably some of this road is destroyed and completely packed with people, livestock and what not.
Yeah, obviously.
I just checked just now and it still alright fine, but that doesn’t matter when Israel bombs the “safe” route anyways: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-middle-east-67108364
Maybe google’s congestion tracking doesn’t work well there, dunno.
This would only work if people are using their phones for navigation, considering that electricity and fuel are short, I don’t think many people were keeping their phones switched on.
