Israel has warned more than a million people in northern Gaza to evacuate southwards in the next 24 hours, ahead of an expected ground attack into the thickly populated enclave.

Hamas militants, who ignited the war with surprise attacks in Israeli cities last weekend, have reportedly told residents in the besieged Gaza Strip to ignore the evacuation order and not to leave their homes.
