Gaza evacuation plan advances with 16 flights, More to come Minister reveals
Israel’s Interior Minister Moshe Arbel announced that 16 evacuation flights carrying hundreds of Gazan civilians have departed from Ramon Airport, with more planned, as part of a U.S.-backed initiative to relocate residents while reconstructing Gaza. The effort, spurred by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s directive to Mossad and led by Defense official Yaakov Blitshtein, involves negotiations with countries like Somalia and Indonesia to accept displaced Palestinians voluntarily.
