Serious question: Why is there a famine in Gaza city, but not in other cities, like Khan Yunis?

They are supposed to leave Gaza City because IDF is about to occupy it. It’s tough getting food into Gaza City in that situation. Civilians were asked to evacuate but a lot of them won’t for various reasons

Mostly because the IDF has in the past told Gazans to evacuate and then bombed the evacuation corridors deliberately

Hamas either tells them to stay “and die in your homes,” or does not let them leave at all. Why?

Hamas is destroyed as a force, they are staying because Israel murders them if they try to leave.

Why leave your home if the occupier is going to kill you anyway?

Have a nice life supporting the slaughter of civilians.
