Our friend Serene is currently in Sinai. She texted me saying: “Bedouins stage three thousand-strong demo at Masoura, near Rafah in protest of plans to demolish houses by Egyptian (-Palestinian) border. Approx 3000 families affected by plans.”

it also speaks about a cross fire between them and the security forsces after the latter opened fire on the demonstrtors,according to the reports, the arish-rafah hih way is now blocked by the bedouins.
please keep the updates
What do you think they are doing?
Are they trying to create a safety belt there also, or is it as some are speculating, the beginning of relocating Palestinians into Sinai as per a secret agreement with Israel?
Ahmad, “create a safety belt” was the declared aim (now the regime claims these were “rumors”) I’m increasingly hearing the “beginning of relocating Palestinians into Sinai as per a secret agreement with Israel” argument from people I tend to value their opinions.. and the same goes for reporters who went to Artish and Rafah, and come back with quotes from the protesters similar to that..
We’ll see… In both cases, fuck the regime..
