Israel: Striderna kommer pågå hela 2024 – minst
Striderna i Gaza kommer pågå under minst hela 2024. Det säger Netanyahus nationella säkerhetsrådgivare Tzachi Hanegbi till israeliska Kan, rapporterar Reuters.
Hanegbi påstår också att den israeliska militären nu kontrollerar över 75 procent av ”Philadelphi-korridoren”, en buffertzon mellan Gaza och Egypten, skriver nyhetsbyrån.
– Tillsammans med egyptierna måste vi se till att vapensmuggling förhindras, säger Hanegbi.
bakgrund
Philadelphi Corridor
Wikipedia (en)
The Philadelphi Corridor, also called Philadelphi Route, is the Israeli code name for a narrow strip of land, 14 km (8.7 miles) in length, situated along the entirety of the border between Gaza Strip and Egypt.
Following Israel's unilateral disengagement from the Gaza Strip in 2005, the Philadelphi Accord with Egypt was concluded, which authorized Egypt to deploy 750 border guards along the route to patrol the border on Egypt's side. The Palestinian side of the border was controlled by the Palestinian Authority, until the 2007 takeover by Hamas. The joint authority for the Rafah Border Crossing was transferred to the Palestinian Authority and Egypt for restricted passage by Palestinian ID card holders, and by others by exception.
One purpose of the Philadelphi Route was to prevent the movement of illegal materials (including weapons and ammunition) and people between Egypt and the Gaza Strip.
