The Israeli leaders of the far -right welcomed the announcement of Defense Minister Israel Kats that he ordered the IDF to prepare a plan that would allow Gaza residents to voluntarily abandon the enclave.

“I congratulate the Minister of Defense on his decision to order the Israeli army to prepare to fulfill our role in the plan of immigration to allow Gaza residents to depart from Gaza to host countries,” Finance Minister Bezadel Smotric said.

“As we have been saying for many years, and even more than the beginning of the war, there is no other realistic solution to ensure peace and security for Israel and personal prosperity for Gaza residents.”

“As we have been saying for many years, and even more than the beginning of the war, there is no other realistic solution to ensure peace and security for Israel and personal prosperity for Gaza residents.”

Smotric had invited Israel to occupy Gaza and “encourage” half of the 2.2 million Palestinians of the Strip to migrate within two years. He has expressed a strong enthusiasm for US President Donald Trump’s proposal to relocate the Palestinians, telling reporters last month that he was working on a “business plan” to turn it into a applicable policy.

For his part, Otzma Yehudit party president (Israeli power) Ithamar Ben Gvir calls Cats’ preparations for “voluntary departure of Gaza residents” one “An important step, which recognizes that the real solution for Gaza is no longer the dreams of ‘rebuilding’ and the return to the previous situation, But a fundamental change to reality. “

“The possibility of voluntary departure is a necessary step to ensure the security of Israeli citizens and to enhance Israeli deterrence. It is time for people to understand: Gaza cannot continue to be a fireplace and the responsibility for this is not Israel but those who have chosen terrorism. ” says Ben Gvir by calling the government “To proceed with determination, to lift every bureaucratic obstacle and to ensure that this option becomes a reality as soon as possible. “
