Israeli officials are said to be holding discussions with Congo and other nations to where they plan to send displaced Palestinians from Gaza, according to Israel’s Zman Yisrael media, Al Jazeera reports.

“Congo will be willing to take in migrants and we’re in talks with others,” the Hebrew news site quoted a senior source in Israel’s security cabinet as saying.

The site also quoted Israel’s Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel advocating for the displacement of Gaza residents.

“At the end of the war… There will be no work, and 60% of Gaza’s agricultural land will become security buffer zones,” said Gamliel, according to Zman Yisrael.
