9:16Now PlayingInternational opposition has continued against Israel's decision to takeover Gaza City.
UN human rights chief Volker Turk warned that further escalation would "result in more massive forced displacement, more killing, more unbearable suffering, senseless destruction and atrocity crimes".
Israel has strongly rejected criticism from world leaders after its security cabinet approved a plan to take control of Gaza City.
Defence Minister Israel Katz said countries that condemned Israel and threatened sanctions would "not weaken our resolve".
The IDF currently controls about three-quarters of Gaza, and almost all of its 2.1 million citizens are situated in the quarter of the territory that the military does not control.
The UN estimates some 87% of Gaza is either in militarised zones or under evacuation orders.
