Netanyahu ally says West Bank-Gaza corridor 'irrelevant'

Cabinet minister Tzachi Hanegbi, an ally of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a member of his Likud party, is questioning a key component of the Trump administration's new Mideast peace plan.

 

Hanegbi, minister for regional cooperation, says that the U.S. proposal for a land link between the West Bank and Gaza Strip is "irrelevant" as long as the Hamas militant group controls Gaza.

 

"It will be relevant when Gaza will stop being a pro-Iranian terror kingdom, meaning it's irrelevant today and in the foreseeable future," Hanegbi told Israel's Kan Radio.
