Hamas wants these human shields—especially children, women, and the elderly—to remain in harm's way.
Israel has declared northern Gaza a war zone. They have given its civilians the opportunity to move several miles south in order to protect themselves from Israeli bombing of legitimate military targets, including Gaza City. Hamas has told the civilians to stay and serve as human shields. It is actually blocking the egress roads to safety so as to assure that civilians who want to leave cannot do so.
Hamas has even come up with a name—'The CNN strategy'—for this misuse of morality.
