Malaysian and Egyptian leaders on Friday rejected any plan to displace Palestinians within the Gaza Strip.
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated late Friday that he spoke with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi and mentioned the humanitarian scenario and reconstruction efforts in Gaza.
“President El-Sisi and I firmly reject any attempt to force Palestinians out from Gaza, as such actions would undermine the Palestinian cause and efforts to establish an independent Palestinian state,” Anwar stated on X.
He praised Egypt’s continued help in facilitating humanitarian and medical assist to Palestinians affected by Israel’s genocidal battle.
“We discussed Japan and Malaysia’s joint efforts under the East Asia Cooperation for Palestinian Development (CEAPAD) initiative to rebuild Gaza, reaffirming that stronger international solidarity is crucial for more effective and meaningful assistance to Palestine,” he added.
Egypt stated this week that it’s engaged on a “comprehensive vision” for the reconstruction of Gaza, destroyed by Israel’s relentless bombardment for 15 months, with out displacing Palestinians from the territory.
Jordan and Egypt are going through mounting US stress to soak up Palestinians after US President Donald Trump referred to as for seizing management of Gaza and relocating Palestinians to international locations within the area — an concept vehemently rejected by Palestinians and Arab leaders.
Trump hosted Jordan’s King Abdullah on the White House on Tuesday and renewed his demand that Gazans ought to be relocated, and the enclave be managed by the US and redeveloped as a vacationer attraction.
