💨 Abstract

Israel's former Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, has criticized Israel's plan to create a "humanitarian city" in Gaza, comparing it to a "concentration camp." Defense Minister Israel Katz proposed this zone to house Palestinians from Gaza, with no provision for exit. Olmert and human rights lawyer Michael Sfard have condemned the plan, equating it to forced relocation and potential war crimes. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly pushing for faster, more cost-effective construction.
