Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz on Thursday ordered the military to prepare for the voluntary departure of Palestinians from Gaza as Israeli officials are hoping to pursue ethnic cleansing following Trumps proposals for the enclave.
I have instructed the IDF to prepare a plan that will allow any resident of Gaza who wishes to leave to do so, to any country willing to receive them, Katz wrote on X.
