"That's how a Palestinian man described his transfer from Gaza, through Israel and Kenya, to South Africa. A journey so desperate that Palestinians paid thousands of dollars to leave their homes without knowing where they were going. A journey forced by more than two years of Israel's genocide. In February, Israel and the United States proposed forcibly removing Palestinians from Gaza. But Arab states rejected calls to take them in, and rights groups labelled it ethnic cleansing."

Rights activists warn of possible ethnic cleansing through relocations of Palestinians. A Palestinian described a transfer from Gaza via Israel and Kenya to South Africa as a journey of suffering, with many paying thousands to leave without knowing destinations. The movements occurred after more than two years of violence described as genocide, and in February Israel and the United States proposed forcibly removing Palestinians from Gaza. Arab states rejected calls to accept relocated Palestinians, and rights groups labelled the proposals ethnic cleansing. The situation raises concern about precedent for forced transfers and potential mass expulsion. Presenter: Nick Clark. Guests include Imtiaz Sooliman, Ori Goldberg and William Schabas.
