Warnings of a "bloodbath" if the occupation invades Rafah, and calls to prevent it. About one million and 400 thousand Palestinians currently live there.

Most of the displaced people who left the northern and central Gaza Strip - which were subjected to massive destruction - live in the city of Rafah. Doctors Without Borders said that repeated forced displacement is what pushed Gazans to Rafah where they became trapped without options and living in temporary tents. The Saudi Foreign Ministry called on the UN Security Council to convene urgently to prevent Israel from invading Rafah and causing a humanitarian catastrophe.
