Israeli Far Right Discusses Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plans

GAZA STRIP, JUL 21 – The plan envisions housing 1.2 million Jewish residents and developing tourism and industry to create a prosperous coastal area, backed by far-right Israeli leaders amid conflict.

  • On July 22, 2025, far-right Israeli figures convened in the Knesset to explore plans for transforming the Gaza Strip into a tourist destination dubbed a "riviera."
  • This meeting followed US President Donald Trump's February proposal to turn Gaza into the 'Riviera of the Middle East' by relocating Palestinians and placing the area under American control.
  • Speakers such as Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and activist Daniella Weiss outlined a comprehensive proposal aiming to establish a lasting Jewish community in Gaza, including plans for housing 1.2 million residents and creating industrial, agricultural, and tourism development areas.
  • Smotrich stated that Israel had received approval from the US president to develop Gaza into a flourishing area and asserted that Israel intends to take control of Gaza and fully integrate it into the country. Meanwhile, Weiss declared that the era of Gaza as an Arab territory has ended.
  • The plan's implications include calls for ethnic cleansing amid Gaza's worsening humanitarian crisis, where over 59,100 Palestinians—mostly civilians—have died since October 2023 during an ongoing military campaign.
