Israeli defence minister insists there are 'voluntary emigration' plans for Gaza

Israeli defence minister insists there are 'voluntary emigration' plans for Gaza Israel's defence minister has advanced plans to remove Palestinians from the Gaza Strip through "voluntary emigration". Israel Katz said on Wednesday that the plans would take place "at the proper time and in the proper manner". Despite the Israeli genocide in Gaza, which has killed more than 70,000 Palestinians and wrought utter destruction on the coastal enclave, the vast majority of Palestinians there say they will never abandon their home.
