Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said on Wednesday that Egyptians would reject the forced displacement of millions of Palestinians into Sinai, adding that any such move would turn the peninsula into a base for attacks against Israel. The Gaza Strip is effectively under Israeli control and Palestinians could instead be moved to Israel's Negev desert "until the militants are dealt with", Sisi told a joint news conference in Cairo with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. "What is happening now in Gaza is an attempt to force civilian residents to take refugee and migrate to Egypt, which should not be accepted," said Sisi. (Reuters)
