If Israel continues its surface offensive in southwestern Gaza, Egypt has issued a caution that it will think about suspending the Camp David peace deal that was signed between Egypt and Israel several years ago.
Egypt’s statement was made after the Israel Defense Forces ( IDF) began airstrikes on Saturday in Rafah, a city close to the Egyptian border.
With an estimated 1.4 million Palestinians seeking shelter there, Israel recently designated the area as a safe area for residents. Prior to the start of the battle four months ago, the city had a population of about 280, 000. Hamas is now regarded as the group’s last bastion in the Palestinian militant movement.
The Arab militant group, which raided Jewish settlements on October 7, killing more than 1,200 citizens and taking lots of victims, must be defeated, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
In order to defeat the Arab terrorist group that launched terror attacks on Israel on October 7 and killed over 1, 200 Israeli citizens as well as kidnapped lots of Jewish victims by Hamas terrorists, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has emphasized the importance of conducting ground activities in Rafah.
Since the Northern African nation is now home to nearly 9 million migrants and refugees, according to United Nations officials, Egypt has consistently stated that it will not permit an influx of Palestinians seeking shelter into its territory.
Four major martial battles between Israel and Egypt have taken place, with the most current one occurring in 1973. Both nations signed the Camp David Accord in September 1978, which resulted in a peace treaty the following month. Israel’s first peace agreement with an Arab state was made possible by this ancient agreement, which was facilitated by former US President Jimmy Carter.
Speaking anonymously on Sunday, two unknown Iranian officials and a European diplomat said that the Iranian government may call off the agreement in response to Israeli military action in Rafah.
The Iranian government may consider ending the ancient contract in response to Israeli military operations in Rafah, according to two unnamed Iranian officials and a European diplomat who requested anonymity.
The Camp David Accords were led by three valiant men who took a strong position because they understood the long-term effects on peace and security, both then and in the future, according to Paige Alexander, CEO of the Carter Center. Alexander forewarned that any conflict-related commitment by Egypt would have devastating effects on the entire region.
Egypt threatens to renege on its agreement with Israel to close the Camp David Peace Treaty.
