Israeli ministers attend 'Return to Gaza Conference', speak in support of resettlement
Thousands, including ministers from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's party, gathered in Jerusalem on Sunday for a conference calling to resettle the Gaza Strip.
At least 12 Israeli ministers participated in the conference about rebuilding Israeli settlements in Gaza and encouraging displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, Israeli journalist Barak Ravid reported.
Ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir, Bezalel Smotrich and several others from Netanyahu's Likud party gave "supportive speeches", he said.
Itay Epshtain, a special adviser for the Norwegian Refugee Council, shared a video in which national security minister Ben-Gvir and minister of finance Smotrich stood arm-over-shoulder, dancing at the conference.
The human rights lawyer said that the image "would form part of the compelling evidence of noncompliance" with the International Court of Justice's recent order to take all measures within its power to prevent acts of genocide and to punish acts of incitement.
