Israel Plans to Turn Gaza Into ’Hong Kong’ for Jewish Settlers

GAZA STRIP, PALESTINE, JUL 22 – The plan aims to displace 2.3 million Palestinians to establish Israeli settler zones with up to 850,000 housing units and advanced infrastructure, including artificial islands and high-speed rail.

  • Last Tuesday, the Knesset committee on restoring Jewish presence in Gush Katif discussed a plan to forcibly displace Gaza’s Palestinian population to create a settler-only high-tech hub.
  • According to Israel Hayom, the blueprint was drafted by pro-settlement groups such as the Gush Katif Residents Forum- Return and Victory, while President Donald Trump earlier this year floated the idea of turning Gaza into the 'Riviera of the Middle East'.
  • Visionaries propose central Gaza as a high-tech urban hub, featuring free-trade zones, AI-driven transport, luxury housing, and artificial islands, with plans for drone-based public transit and robotic hospitals.
  • Legal experts argue, `Palestinian legal experts warn it amounts to a blueprint for ethnic cleansing under the guise of urban development`, highlighting serious rights concerns.
  • Implementation begins with the three-year clearance phase, followed by the seven-year initial infrastructure period, with full completion projected within 15 years, as officials foresee.
