Gaza: UN says Gazans heading back north despite Israeli warnings
Some people who fled northern Gaza after Israeli forces told them to leave are now heading back, says the head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
Thomas White from the UNRWA tells the Today programme on BBC Radio 4: "It's very dangerous in the north but people are losing their lives in the south as well."
White said 8,000 people were taking shelter in his organisation's warehouse complex and surviving on just one litre of water a day and small amounts of bread.
Palestinian officials in the Hamas-run health ministry said 436 people have been killed in Gaza since yesterday morning - taking the total to more than 5,000 since 7 October, they said.
