if only there was a word for "displacing" an "entire population" of people using "military ground operations"

Nearly 2 million people have been displaced in Gaza – almost the entire population – after the Israeli military last week ordered a further 80,000 people to evacuate parts of Gaza City amid a renewed ground operation, the latest UN figures show.

all the culture you liked from decades past was made possible by cheap rent and artists' pay keeping up with what things cost
