    Wonder how many of those babies will be reunited with their families after this, if they’re even still alive.

      Hopefully all of them. They’re being evacuated to hospitals in the south of Gaza, so their relatives should be able to go with them.

      Look at the track record of the US. How many kids are still not reunited with their families 5 years later?

    Instead of telling Gazans to all go south, why don’t they set up some safe zones in Northern areas controlled by the IDF? They could bring in full supplies of everything, let people leave Gaza, and/or allow them to go to the west bank if they choose.

      It’s a pretty good idea. But they’re probably worried about terrorists squeezing through. Egypt’s already had to halt some of the refugee routes because they caught a few terrorists sneaking through.
