Egypt: Netanyahu statements are false allegations, deliberate distortions
Egypt has firmly rejected the 'false allegations, and deliberate distortions' advanced by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during statements to Fox News on Saturday on the Egyptian role in the Gaza Strip.
In a statement on Sunday evening, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said: “These statements contravene with the crucial role Egypt has played in facilitating the entry of urgent humanitarian aid for the Palestinian people, including 5,000 humanitarian aid trucks since the ceasefire went into effect in addition to facilitating the evacuation of those wounded and dual nationalities into the country.'
“Egypt views these statements as an attempt to distract from Israel's crimes against civilians in Gaza; its destruction of vital infrastructure, such as hospitals, schools, power stations, and water facilities in the strip; in addition to using siege and starvation as weapons against civilians,' stressed the Egyptian foreign ministry.
On Sunday, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry reaffirmed 'Egypt’s firm rejection of any statements advocating the displacement of the Palestinian people to Egypt, Jordan, or Saudi Arabia.' Ahram Online
