Disaster threatens? China has given a clear warning
There are one million and 400 thousand internally displaced Palestinians in Rafah.
"We call on Israel to stop military operations as soon as possible, do everything possible to avoid casualties among innocent civilians and prevent a devastating humanitarian disaster in Rafah," the Chinese Foreign Ministry said, according to Al Jazeera.
It added that China "opposes and condemns" actions directed against civilians which violate international law.
Previously, the Israeli authorities designated the city of Rafah as a "safe zone" for Palestinian civilians.
