Evacuation

The organized withdrawal of people or the removal of valuables from a danger zone to a safe place
Evacuation is the process of withdrawing or removing people and resources from territories where they may be in danger.

Evacuation can be general or partial (for certain categories, such as children), mandatory or voluntary.
