Israel's military says it is is nearing a widespread counteroffensive attack in Gaza City, where thousands of Palestinians have scrambled to evacuate over the past day.
On Saturday night local time, Israel's chief military spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari urged Gazans to head south ahead of the expected ground assault in northern Gaza.
"We are going to attack Gaza City very broadly soon," Hagari said.
In a separate statement, the Israeli Defense Forces said Saturday that it was getting ready for "the next stages of the war."
It said it was preparing "a wide range of operational offensive plans, which can include combined and coordinated strikes from the air, sea and land" with a strong emphasis on ground operations.

Biden also spoke separately with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Saturday. Biden vowed to work with other countries in the region to ensure supplies reach civilians in Gaza and to work to prevent the conflict from widening, the White House said.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken traveled to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday to discuss the conflict with Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud.
"None of us want to see suffering by civilians on any side, whether it's in Israel, whether it's in Gaza, whether it's anywhere else," Blinken said. "And we're working together to do our best to protect them."
Amid the fighting, Gazans are also reeling from the lack of electricity and clean water. On Wednesday, Israel tightened its siege of Gaza, wreaking havoc on hospitals that are now left with only backup generators."...
