Israel told Gazans to leave parts of Khan Younis, the main south city, on Monday, telling them to go to Rafah, near the Egyptian border, and the Mediterranean coast.
Al-Mahatta, al-Katiba, Hamad, al-Satir, Bani Suheila, and Ma'in were the six northern and central neighborhoods that the IDF instructed residents to evacuate immediately in order to "preserve your safety and security."
The region is home to an estimated 167,000 individuals.
The guide advises them to move to al-Fukhari, east of Khan Younis, and Rafah's al-Shaboura and Tal al-Ruler areas, which are as of now stuffed.
The Israeli military said it was "dropping pamphlets with QR codes that opens a guide directing Gazans to more secure regions".
However, the BBC's Gaza correspondent claims to have spoken with Palestinians in the affected areas who either do not know about the map or are unable to see it due to a lack of internet access.
The IDF has said it has set up "safe zones" where individuals can go however UN authorities have dismissed this portrayal.
Lynn Hastings, the UN humanitarian coordinator for the Palestinian territories, stated, "When unilaterally declared, these zones cannot be safe nor humanitarian."
She continued, "What we see today are shelters with no capacity, a health system on its knees, a lack of clean drinking water, no proper sanitation, and poor nutrition for people who are already exhausted mentally and physically."
