Israel Defence Forces International Spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricus stressed that civilians in Gaza are not Israel’s enemies ahead of a potential ground attack.
Israel issued a warning on Friday for civilians in northern Gaza to leave ahead of an anticipated incursion, providing an initial window of just 24 hours to evacuate 1.1 million people from the region.
Israel's government subsequently extended the window to allow more time for people to evacuate.
The IDF official expressed confusion at criticism directed towards Israel over the evacuation time limit.
“I fail to understand how evacuating civilians from a combat zone could be a war crime, I really don’t understand maybe it's me but I can’t understand the logic behind it,” he told Sky News Australia.
“It’s like you are damned if you do and damned if you don’t, we are trying to do the right thing to evacuate civilians so we can conduct significant combat activities and then we get criticism for doing that.”
