Dozens of Palestinians rallied in Gaza this weekend to denounce a controversial U.S. proposal to relocate Gaza’s population to neighboring countries, while applauding Egypt’s staunch rejection of the plan. Demonstrators waved Palestinian and Egyptian flags in Gaza City and Deir al-Balah, with banners praising Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi’s support for their cause. 🌍✊
‘Our homeland, our rights’
Protesters issued a fiery statement declaring Palestine their \"rightful homeland\" and vowing to resist displacement. \"Generations of struggle have shaped our identity—we won’t let anyone erase it,\" the message read, urging unity against threats to Palestinian sovereignty.
Hamas slams ‘absurd’ U.S. idea
Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri called the proposal \"a crime\" that fuels regional chaos, while Arab leaders in Cairo pushed for swift Gaza reconstruction to ensure Palestinians remain on their land. Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and others backed the call, highlighting growing regional solidarity. 💬
