Report: Egypt to give tacit approval to IDF remaining on Philadelphi Corrid - i24NEWS

Despite public statements against the continued IDF presence along the southern Gazan border with Egypt, Cairo reportedly has no qualms as l

Basically Egypt is agreeing to let Israel control the Philadelphi Corridor, which has historically been used to smuggle arms into Gaza, so long as they don't have to publicly approve of it. It is a big "wink wink nudge nudge" moment here because Egypt knows they are better off without Hamas smuggling shit through their country.

Netanyahu reported to say he prioritizes Philadelphi over hostages, horrifying Gallant

In shouting match as cabinet backs PM's demand to keep IDF on Gaza-Egypt border, Netanyahu says only firm stance will enable deal; Gallant w

August 30, 2024 - Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu reportedly told Defense Minister Gallant that he was prioritizing maintaining troops in the Philadelphi Corridor over saving the lives of the remaining hostages.

"It was the latest evidence of the divide between Netanyahu and the security establishment. Gallant and the security chiefs have repeatedly pushed Netanyahu for more compromise in the negotiations, particularly regarding the Philadelphi Corridor, fearing that the premier’s hardline positions are scuttling a deal."

Gallant confronts Netanyahu

"Gallant then told the cabinet they faced a choice: to remain in the corridor or to return the hostages. “You are deciding to stay in the Philadelphi Corridor. Is this logical to you? There are living (hostages) there!” Gallant exclaimed. Dermer replied, “The prime minister can do as he likes,” to which Gallant responded, “The prime minister can indeed make all the decisions, and he can also decide to kill all the hostages.”

Hostage families forum horrified by cabinet quotes

The Hostage and Missing Families Forum responded to the leaked quotes from the security cabinet meeting by demanding that Netanyahu publicly declare that he has given up on the lives of hostages in favor of continued IDF presence on the Philadelphi Corridor. “The quotes from the cabinet meeting should cause every Israeli citizen to lose sleep,” the forum said in a statement. “Every citizen should know that if they are to be kidnapped from their bed in their pajamas on a Saturday morning, their prime minister will do everything to keep his seat, even at the cost of leaving them to die in the Hamas tunnels in Gaza.”

In the nearly two decades since Hamas took control of Gaza, Egypt has permitted the terrorist organization to construct a vast network of tunnels under their shared border. These tunnels have been exploited for illicit activities, including the smuggling of vehicles, weapons, and rockets. However, since Israel regained control of the Philadelphia Corridor just over a month ago, a staggering 170 tunnels have been discovered and demolished. This revelation highlights the extent of Hamas' clandestine operations and underscores the necessity of Israeli oversight. Given the history of neglect and complicity by neighboring countries, Israel cannot rely on any entity other than the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to secure the corridor and prevent future tunnel construction.

WE WILL KEEP THE CORRIDOR 💯🇮🇱♥️

When Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, an agreement was reached that obliged Egypt to prevent arms smuggling through (or under) the Gaza-Sinai border.

This agreement was "guaranteed" by the Americans.

It was not fulfilled.

Over 100 smuggling tunnels have been found by Israeli forces under the "Philadelphi Corridor."

This failure resulted in the massacre of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7 of last year, and the flattening of Gaza in retaliation in the subsequent months.
