Israeli minister shares post calling for occupation of Sinai
Israel’s heritage minister, Amichai Eliyahu, has shared a post on X that calls for Israel to reoccupy Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. The post called on people to buy shirts that read “occupation now” and show a map of Israel that includes the peninsula, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Eliyahu retweeted the post more than four decades after Israel returned the Sinai to Egypt as part of the two countries’ 1979 peace treaty.
The Times of Israel reported that neither a spokesman for Eliyahu nor for National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir responded to requests for comment. Eliyahu is a member of Ben-Gvir’s far-right Otzma Yehudit party.
