The Israeli military has ordered the evacuation of part of a crowded area in Gaza it has designated a humanitarian zone. The military says Hamas militants have embedded themselves in the area and civilians should evacuate the zone's eastern part. The announcement came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was traveling to the United States to meet with President Joe Biden and address Congress to make his case for the nine-month war against Hamas while cease-fire negotiations continue. Meanwhile, Gaza's Health Ministry says new Israeli airstrikes have sent the death toll in the war to over 39,000 Palestinians.
