Conference in Jerusalem: Netanyahu ministers call for Israeli repopulation of the Gaza Strip. Netanyahu himself is said to have made critical comments about the meeting, and sharp criticism came from the Palestinian side.

Palestinian Foreign Ministry in Ramallah spoke of a “meeting of colonialist terrorist organizations.” The international community and the USA are called upon to put pressure on Netanyahu so that the head of government stops this form of incitement, it said. Around 2.2 million Palestinians live in the Gaza strip.
