Senior Israeli security officials met on Tuesday to discuss the possibility of expelling Palestinians from the Gaza Strip, despite repeated previous failures to advance such plans, according to Haaretz.
The Israeli daily reported that Shmuel Ben Ezra, head of the National Security Council, convened an urgent meeting with defence officials to discuss what was described as “encouraging voluntary emigration” from Gaza.
Officials from the Israeli army, Shin Bet and Mossad were among those invited.
During the meeting, Mossad representatives reportedly said the agency has not identified any country willing to accept Palestinians from Gaza.
Defence officials told Haaretz they were surprised by the urgency of the discussion, noting the issue has been raised repeatedly in the past without progress.
