Russian President, Vladimir Putin, said that calls for the Palestinians to leave for Sinai are not something that can lead to peace, noting that Gaza strip is ‘part of the historical land of Palestine’.
“It is difficult to give assessments. This is the land on which the Palestinians live, and this is their land historically. It was also supposed to establish an independent Palestinian state that would include Gaza. In my opinion, this is not something that can lead to peace.” Putin said in statements on Wednesday.
Israeli ambassador to Egypt Amira Oron said on Tuesday that “Israel has no intentions regarding Sinai, and has not asked the Palestinians to move there.”
“Israel is committed to the peace treaty with Egypt, in which the borders between the two countries were clearly defined. Sinai is Egyptian territory where the Egyptian army has fought terrorism during the past ten years.” Oron quoted on the Embassy’s X account [formally known as twitter].
The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced on Wednesday that the number of deaths and injuries recorded 1,055 and 5,184, respectively, including 23 and 130 in the West Bank.
The Israeli Ministry of Health has earlier announced that the number of injured at hospitals amounted to 3,007, including 373 in critical conditions. Also, 1,000 were killed, and between 100 and 150 fell hostages in the hands of Hamas.
Hamas' Qassam Brigades launched Saturday an offensive on Israeli settlements on the occupied lands by firing 5,000 missiles in 20 minutes, invoking airstrikes on Gaza Strip and incurring scores of casualties on both sides as confrontations have not ceased until present.
