Palestinian Minister Calls for Support of Arab-Islamic Plan to Rebuild Gaza

Palestinian Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Farsin Shahin, has emphasised the urgent need to support the Arab-Islamic initiative for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, asserting that the Palestinian Authority must be allowed to regain full control over the territory.

Speaking to Cairo News Channel on Saturday evening, Shahin accused Israel of deliberately prolonging its military aggression in both Gaza and the West Bank in pursuit of what she described as the vision of “Greater Israel.”

The minister stated that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is refusing to end the war to avoid facing domestic accountability, claiming he is misleading the Israeli public by promising total victory.

Shahin also stressed that any future Middle East peace plan, including proposals made under former US President Donald Trump, must guarantee Palestinians the right to a just and lasting resolution to their national cause.

Her remarks come amid growing calls for post-war reconstruction efforts and renewed international engagement in resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
