The UAE strongly condemns statements by Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who called for the displacement of Palestinians from Gaza.
The UAE rejects these calls and criticizes any actions promoting further escalation in the region. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasizes the need for an urgent ceasefire and immediate delivery of humanitarian aid.
The US State Department also criticizes the remarks, describing them as “inflammatory and irresponsible.” The Israeli ministers presented the migration of Palestinians as a solution to the conflict, coinciding with ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza and increased violence in the West Bank.
