Just another step in the murder of all Palestinians by Israel – Peter

The Israeli army announced on Saturday that it has completed the siege of Rafah, and finished establishing the Morag Corridor, isolating Rafah from Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, Anadolu reports.

In a statement, the Israeli army said: “Forces of the 36th Division have completed the encirclement of Rafah.”

It added that in the past 24 hours, troops “completed opening the Morag Corridor, which cuts through southern Gaza between Rafah and Khan Younis.”

This development follows a report earlier this week by the daily Haaretz, which revealed that the army is preparing to incorporate Rafah, an area that makes up about one-fifth of the Gaza Strip, into a so-called buffer zone where Palestinians will be prohibited from entering.

The newspaper described the move as tantamount to “the eradication of the city.”
