Israel Appeals to Egypt for Hindrance of Pro-Palestinian Rallies, Labeling Them as "Provocative Actions"

The humanitarian vessel Madleen ain't the only stir in the midst. Israel's politicians eyeball Egypt to halt pro-Palestinian protests near the Gaza Strip's edge. Israeli officials argue these demonstrations are "incitements" and seek to prevent "extremist protesters" buzzing close to the region slammed by the Israeli military blitz, all happening on Wednesday, June 11.

Israel bears a gripe against The Soumoud caravan (resistance in Arabic), a parade of Tunisian, Algerian, Moroccan, and Mauritanian activists pushing off from Tunis on June 9, en route to the Gaza Strip. Additionally, Israeli ministers knock an international march scheduled for June 19th at the Israeli-Egyptian border, set to kick off activists hailing from 44 nations. "Expect the Egyptian authorities to ward off 'extremist protesters' at the Israeli-Egyptian border and avoid allowing them to## stir up trouble## or attempt to infiltrate the Gaza Strip" spouted Israel's Minister of Defense, Israel Katz, in a statement.

Egypt demands "preliminary approval"

On the flip side, Egypt's Foreign Ministry reiterates "the urgency of applying pressure on Israel to loosen its hold over Gaza and enable humanitarian access". Simultaneously, reminding that any pro-Palestinian events dreamed up by foreign delegations on their soil necessitate "preliminary approval".**

Approximately 4,000 activists from 44 countries lay claim to tickets on flights to Cairo to join the June 19 international march, according to one of the organizers of the French Press Agency. The aim is to purge from Cairo by bus, reaching Arish City, then hitting the trail to Rafah on foot, roughly a "50 km hike across three days". Numerous French citizens traveling for this march have already landed on Egyptian authorities' radar, reported a spokesperson for the French delegation to the French Press Agency.**

  • Echoing the plea for humanitarian access, the French Press Agency reported that nearly 4,000 activists from 44 countries are planning to join an international march on June 19, starting in Egypt, aiming to walk to the Gaza Strip, highlighting a significant interest in the current war-and-conflicts scenario and general-news.
  • Amidst this, Israeli politics are not only focused on halting pro-Palestinian protests near the Gaza Strip's edge, but also targeting an international march scheduled for June 19th at the Israeli-Egyptian border. This, in conjunction with the Soumoud caravan, forms a turbulent mix of crime-and-justice and politics in the region.
