An IDF spokesman in Arabic issued an urgent message to Gaza residents:
• In accordance with the agreement, IDF forces remained deployed in specific areas in the Gaza Strip.
Do not approach IDF forces in the area until further notice.
Getting close to the forces exposes you to danger.
• Traffic from the south to the north of the Gaza Strip or towards the Netzarim axis remains dangerous in light of IDF activity in the area.
We warn residents against approaching IDF forces in general and in the Netzarim axis area in particular.
• If Hamas complies with all the details of the agreement, starting next week, residents of the Gaza Strip will be able to return to the northern Strip and instructions will be given on the matter.
• In the southern Gaza Strip, it is dangerous to approach the Rafah Crossing area, the Philadelphia Axis area, and all areas where IDF forces are concentrated.
• In the marine area along the Strip, there is a great danger to fishing, swimming and diving, and we warn against entering the sea in the coming days.
• It is forbidden to approach Israeli territory and the buffer zone. Approaching the buffer zone is extremely dangerous.
