Palestine says will never allow Netanyahu’s plans for voluntary transfer of Palestinians to go ahead

Ramallah (Quds News Network) – Palestine has strongly condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s proposal to encourage voluntary migration of Palestinians from Gaza, urging international outcry against what could be a second Palestinian Nakba.

Netanyahu reportedly expressed readiness to promote the voluntary migration of Palestinians from Gaza during a Likud party meeting. However, he questioned whether there were countries willing to accept those who leave.

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry asserted that Netanyahu’s statements were another blow to the countries backing his ongoing genocidal war on Gaza.

Israeli media sources report that Prime Minister Netanyahu mentioned during the Likud faction meeting that he is actively working to facilitate plans to "voluntary immigration" of Gaza residents to other countries.

The Hamas movement also denounced Netanyahu’s plan, characterizing it as an effort to prolong the aggression.

Hamas emphasized the Palestinian people’s resistance to any scheme aiming to erase their cause or displace them from their lands and sacred sites.

Since the surprise Hamas operation on October 7, known as Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, Israel has relentlessly bombarded the Gaza Strip, resulting in the murder of over 20,700 Palestinians, primarily women and children.

The Israeli onslaught has left Gaza devastated, with half of its housing damaged or demolished, and nearly 2 million people displaced amid severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicines.
