Israeli offensive plan on Rafah: the Palestinian presidency condemns, European diplomacy “is alarmed” “Palestinians will not abandon their land or accept being forcibly displaced from their homeland,” the Palestinian office said. In the far south of the Gaza Strip, on the border with Egypt, Rafah is currently home to more than a million of Gaza's approximately 2.4 residents.
Israeli Prime Minister asked the IDF on Friday to submit a “combined plan” for “evacuation” of civilians from Rafah and “destruction’ of Hamas in this locality.
