An Israeli plan, with American blessing, to displace Gazans to Egypt

An informed source revealed to the "Novosti" agency that there are plans by the Israeli government to settle a large number of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip in Egypt under the pretext of ensuring their safety during the active phase of the war.


The source said: “According to available information, the Israeli government has plans to resettle a large number of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip in Egypt under the pretext of ensuring their safety during the active phase of the military operation and the reconstruction of the Strip after the conflict.”



He pointed out that "in the first stage, we can talk about transferring at least 100,000 people to the territory of a neighboring country."


He added: "In the future, it is planned to deport several more batches of Gaza residents in this way. At the same time, it is clear that West Jerusalem is not interested in their return."


According to the source, “to ensure the approval of Cairo, which is currently categorically opposed to such a scenario, the intention is to involve Washington in the matter.”


The source concluded, "In exchange for the green light from Egypt, the Americans are said to be committed to paying the costs of building and operating the refugee camps, and will also provide Egypt with a large package of financial aid, which is a strong boost in the context of the economic difficulties that this country is going through."


Last Monday, the Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas" confirmed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's talk about working with countries to pass a voluntary immigration plan for Palestinians is "ridiculous and an attempt to market illusions."


Earlier, Israeli media quoted Netanyahu as saying during a Likud Party session that he is pushing for voluntary migration of Gaza residents to other countries.
