Ramallah, July 11 – The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor today accused Israel of creating a massive detention camp in the southern Gaza Strip to imprison a large portion of the coastal enclave's population.
A statement from the NGO explained that the Israeli plan to relocate the territory's residents to a humanitarian zone represents a dangerous escalation of the ongoing genocide.
The plan envisages the relocation of some 600,000 Palestinians after subjecting them to security checkpoints, imposing strict restrictions on their movements, and prohibiting them from leaving for other areas, it stressed.
It is a deliberate move to empty Gaza and impose a new demographic reality by force, it warned.
In this regard, it recalled the Israeli government's proposal to promote voluntary migration of Palestinians as part of an external displacement policy.
The concentration of Gaza's population in the south does not represent a humanitarian objective, but rather a transitional phase within a systematic plan to empty the territory of its population, it stressed.
The NGO emphasized that the idea constitutes a serious violation of international humanitarian law and constitutes acts of forced displacement, persecution, and apartheid.
It stated that calling these camps humanitarian zones or humanitarian transit zones represents nothing more than a deliberate manipulation of terminology to justify coercive policies aimed at reshaping the demographic reality in the Strip. (Text and photo: PL)
