Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's National Security Minister, has called for full occupation of the Gaza Strip during a visit to Temple Mount. This contentious site in east Jerusalem witnessed him praying, which is typically prohibited for Jews. His statements included urging for the voluntary emigration of Palestinians, a call that has implications for accusations of ethnic cleansing being directed at Israel. Concurrently, a pro-Palestinian march in Sydney led by Julian Assange drew significant participation, blocking the Harbour Bridge.
Itamar Ben-Gvir has called for Israel to 'fully occupy' the entire Gaza Strip, a statement made during a visit to the Temple Mount, a disputed holy site.
During his visit, Ben-Gvir was seen praying at Temple Mount, which is seen as a highly inflammatory act, given that Jewish prayers there are prohibited.
Ben-Gvir, with strong ties to the settler movement, stated that Palestinians should be 'encouraged to emigrate voluntarily,' sparking accusations of ethnic cleansing.
A pro-Palestinian march in Sydney, attended by Julian Assange, attracted an estimated 25,000 participants and closed the Harbour Bridge.
