🔴Egyptian Exploitation Alert: Gaza Crisis Deepens 🔴

The Times |

Gazans desperate to escape the horrors of war are being exploited by Hala Consulting and Tourism, a company allegedly profiteering from the misery inflicted by the ongoing conflict.

Ibrahim al-Arjani, a businessman with historical ties to state and military establishments, and his company are charging exorbitant fees—up to $5,000 for adults and $2,500 for children—capitalizing on the trauma of over 20,000 Palestinians. Hala may have made $88 million in a matter of weeks by over-charging desperate people to leave for Egypt.

Egypt's Complicity:
While Egypt sent delegations to Israel in a bid to stave off attacks near the Rafah crossing, it simultaneously leverages the crisis, potentially earning millions off the backs of fleeing Gazans.

This contradiction exposes a deeper cynicism within the ceasefire discussions, raising questions about Egypt's role.

"If there was any good faith in trying to help people get out of Gaza, they wouldn't be paying this much." - Kareem, a Palestinian trying to evacuate his family.

This crisis is not just a humanitarian disaster; it's a lucrative business for those exploiting these dire circumstances. Israel's relentless siege on Gaza continues to create conditions where survival hinges on financial capability, echoing a broader systemic abuse of power.

📰The Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported on the authority of a settler from Avivim:

I saw my house burning before my eyes due to Hezbollah missiles.

The security forces prevented me from approaching and extinguishing the fire due to the seriousness of the situation.

Apparently Hezbollah saw Israeli army soldiers next to the house and fired the missiles.

📰The Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported on a settler from Metulla:

The Metulla settlement has not been evacuated since its founding in this way. Even in the 2006 war there were a number of settlers inside it.

This time we were evacuated in a state of panic because they were afraid of infiltration operations, and today there are missiles. Anti-armor precision targeting us.
