Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has called for evacuating the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank and “handling it similarly” to the Gaza Strip, according to Israeli media, Anadolu reports.
“The refugee camps are the epicenter of evil. They are not under the control of the Palestinian Authority, but under the control of Iran,” Katz said during a closed-door meeting with leaders of the Yesha Council, which includes all municipal councils of illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank as cited by the public broadcaster KAN.
“The Jenin refugee camp must be evacuated of its citizens, and it must be handled similarly to the Gaza Strip,” he added.
