Ethnic cleansing on Israel’s agenda​

TEHRAN- An Israeli far-right minister has once more highlighted the apartheid and fascist characteristics of the regime.

Ethnic cleansing on Israel’s agenda

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has urged Palestinians to “voluntarily” leave the Gaza Strip.

“We will encourage voluntary transfer of all Gazan citizens. We will offer them the opportunity to move to other countries because that land belongs to us,” Ben-Gvir said. 
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has previously made similar remarks. 

Israel currently stands accused of attempting to carry out an ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in northern Gaza. The Israeli army launched a brutal offensive in the north more than two weeks ago ordering people to leave the area. 

It has prevented the entry of essentials such as food and continues to commit massacres there. 

Since Israel launched war on Gaza on October last year, it has been accused of trying to forcibly transfer Palestinians to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.  

Israel withdrew its military and settlers from Gaza in 2005 after a nearly 40-year occupation.
