Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said his government is working to correct what he described as past displacement errors in northern West Bank, according to Shehab Wire. He characterized earlier population transfers as mistakes requiring remedy. Smotrich threatened to take similar steps in Gaza Strip, linking his assessment of West Bank policy to potential future action.
The minister's comments connect his framing of previous forced relocations as errors needing correction to his explicit pledge of comparable measures against Gaza residents. His remarks suggest a policy continuity between correcting past displacements in the occupied West Bank and implementing population transfers in Gaza.
