US-backed aid group proposed 'Humanitarian Transit Areas' for Palestinians in Gaza

GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 9 – Trump's plan involves relocating Gaza's 2.3 million Palestinians and establishing US control to address security concerns, sparking widespread criticism and fears of forced displacement.

  • On Monday, Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz revealed plans to relocate up to 600,000 displaced Palestinians to a newly proposed humanitarian zone established on the remains of Rafah in southern Gaza.
  • The plan follows ongoing displacement amid heavy damage in Gaza and is tied to ceasefire talks with Hamas, which opposes the camp and demands a permanent truce.
  • Israel Katz described the site as a 'humanitarian city' to be run by international bodies, with Palestinians screened for Hamas ties and prevented from leaving by IDF-controlled security.
  • Human rights lawyer Michael Sfard stated the plan amounts to forcible transfer potentially constituting war crimes, while global bodies like the UN and Red Cross condemned forced displacement.
  • The plan's implementation risks worsening Gaza's humanitarian crisis and faces opposition from regional actors, including the UAE and the UK, amid unclear international support.
