15 Israeli organizations have begun preparing for settlement projects in the Gaza Strip, in the event that the occupation army is able to extend its control over the Strip, while an Israeli contracting and real estate marketing company has opened the door to reserving residential units there.

This took place during a conference held in Tel Aviv, on December 11, entitled “Practical preparation for settlement in the Gaza Strip,” organized by a coalition of settlement organizations funded by the Israeli government.

One of the companies published an advertisement entitled “A house on the beach is not a dream,” in which it said, “We are working to prepare the land for the return to Gush Katif.”

The Hebrew website Davar said that the meeting took place despite the opposition of the government and the security apparatus, but the leaders of the conference see the war as a historic opportunity that the settlement movement should not waste.
