If 1.3 million Palestinians from the southern Gaza city are forced into tent camps along the sea ahead of a military offensive, Israel will be closer to its goal of expelling strip’s population to Egypt by land and other countries by boat

Did I read correctly, they plan to build 3 tent camps each one with 25.000 tents. So how is Israel planning to host 1M + refugees in 75.000 tents? And since this is mostly agricultural land, what about sanitation, etc? That’s very rich of Israel!

You did not read correctly:

Israel says it will establish 15 camp villages… Each with 25000 tents

It would be about 3 to a tent. I doubt any of this is real though unless Israel has half a million tents laying around.

Egyptian officials say that Israel expects the camps, which would include medical facilities, to be funded by the US and Arab states.

So umm israel isn’t hosting shit, it’s situated in foreign land, funded by foreign nation, but planned and caused by them.

Can’t believe the world “leaders” (presidents) are letting this happen and then claim “we care for humanity”.

the leaders of a given country are only responsible for their own country’s citizens.

Marsupial@quokk.au on 15 Feb 2024 07:11 next collapse

No.

They’re part of a global community and have a responsibility to it as well.

Plus many of them are directly aiding Israel.

Someone else commented what, I wanted to say too.

However I want to add on that; if something happens to their own country, they do expect that other countries help them too.

It doesn’t seem the case when the US are always giving military aids to Israel

What state do the Gazans belong to?

I will always say this: any country that tries to deal with a population it considers undesirable by withholding food, medicine, and potable water is a country committing genocide.

Israel says it will establish 15 camp villages along the coast between Rafah and Gaza City in central Gaza. The areas included are south of Al-Mawasi and Sharm Park. Each camp will be equipped with 25,000 tents.

that’s 375,000 tents. where did they source that many tents?! sort of amazing really

Did you see the “tents” they have? A wooden cube frame made with 2x4s and a plastic sheet draped over it. I wouldn’t keep my pigs in such a shitty thing, let alone human beings…
