Displacement [of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip] will threaten peace, security and stability in the region and the world, Egypt’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson said, adding that Israel’s policy of blocking the entry of aid to Gaza is systematically aimed at pushing Palestinians to leave the Strip under the weight of bombardment and siege.

“Unfortunately, the grave Israeli violations of Israeli war crimes are not called by some by their real names,” Sameh Shoukry said during a meeting with the Chinese foreign minister in Beijing.

“Egypt is making every effort to bring aid into the Gaza Strip through the Rafah crossing, but Israel’s policy of obstructing the entry of aid is a systematic policy aimed at pushing the Palestinians to leave the Strip under the weight of bombing and siege.”
