'Planned Community' in Rafah Would Force Palestinians Into Israeli Panopticon
Drop Site's Sharif Abdel Kouddous outlines the ways in which Israel is consolidating control over the Gaza strip. "It's been building military outposts...bringing in infrastructure and sewage and water lines to these outposts. It's expanded and built Israeli road networks connecting these outposts to bases in Israel, to settlements in Israel," Kouddous said.
He also discusses his recent article for Drop Site News, "Leaked Documents: 'Planned Community' in Rafah Would Force Palestinians Into Israeli Panopticon." To enter this residential zone, Palestinians will "have to pass through checkpoints. They'll be registered with biometric documentation...They're going to have to use something called 'Electronic Shekel wallets,' so all economic transactions will be monitored," he said.
In addition to the above surveillance, the Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC) also proposed a new schooling curriculum for Palestinians "aimed at promoting an Emirati-inspired reeducation program," Kouddous said in his article.
