BREAKING: Somaliland Open to Help Over One Million Refugees from Gaza
Somaliland and Egypt have expressed willingness to accept refugees from Gaza, according to On Elpeleg, Commercial Attaché for Somalia in the Middle East, speaking to Norway Today.
Earlier today, the Hezbollah-affiliated newspaper Al-Akhbar reported that the Egyptian president announced at Arab summits that Egypt is willing to temporarily evacuate half a million Palestinians from Gaza to a designated city in northern Sinai. This is the first indication of cracks in the Arab world’s opposition to Trump’s plan.
Somaliland's Foreign Minister confirmed last Wednesday on Israeli national TV that the country is open to receiving refugees from Gaza.
"As the Commercial Attaché for Somalia in the Middle East, I can confirm from internal government sources in Somaliland that the country has an area in the east, covering over 200 km² along the Red Sea, with the capacity to take in over one million refugees from Gaza. The landscape here is unique and could be developed into a ‘Riviera,’" On Elpeleg stated to Norway Today.
Elpeleg continued, "If Egypt, Somaliland, and one or two other countries cooperate, all refugees could be evacuated, effectively ending this war. The evacuation could be temporary or permanent."
Somaliland is reportedly waiting for an initiative from Israel to proceed with the plans.
Earlier this week, Somaliland’s Foreign Minister, Abdirahman Dahir Adan, told Israel’s public broadcaster KAN that Somaliland’s main goal is recognition and showing the world that it is a peaceful, democratic nation.
Somaliland declared independence from Somalia but has not been formally recognized by most nations. Despite this, Israel has recognized Somaliland’s independence since 1960, though no official diplomatic relations have been established between the two countries.
