Israeli Finance Minister Threatens Destruction of Gaza Strip

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has stated that a victory for Israel in the Palestinian Gaza Strip would result in the area being completely destroyed, with current residents being required to move to other countries.

Forced Relocation Plan

Smotrich outlined a plan where citizens would initially be sent south to a humanitarian zone free of Hamas or terrorism, before being relocated in large numbers to third countries.

Speaking at a conference on Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank, Smotrich reiterated Israel's intentions, stating, 'We will finally conquer Gaza. We are no longer afraid of the word occupation.'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a military operation aimed at defeating Hamas, without specifying the extent of the occupied territory.
