Palestinian journalist and writer Mohammed Mhawish said he received a call at about 1:30pm (11:30 GMT) in Gaza City from an unknown source who identified themselves as an officer of the Israeli army.
During the call, Mhawish was given 20 minutes to evacuate his house with about 30 members of his family.
“I have received several pre-recorded calls from the military to evacuate,” Mhawish told Al Jazeera.
“They were all generally addressed to the residents of the north and the centre of the Gaza Strip to go south,” he said, adding: “But this time, the speaker, who sounded [like] a Hebrew native, said my full name. He sounded threatening.”
Mhawish, who has been reporting on the war for Al Jazeera from Gaza City, was “sure the call meant to scare and silence him”.
He added that the Israeli military officer warned him not to return to his house again at all, and said: “We are warning you that we are bombing the house.”
