Egypt warns Israel that attempt to take over ‘Philadelphi Route’ will damage ties

[IsraelTimes] Egypt warns Israel that any attempt to seize security control of the strip of land that separates Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
and Egypt will result in a "serious threat" to relations between the neighboring countries.

The Philadelphi corridor is a 14 kilometer (nine-mile) long slice of land on Egypt-Gaza border. Israeli leaders have talked about taking control of the corridor to prevent possible weapons smuggling into Gaza. Egypt fears that a military operation on the border could push large numbers of Paleostinians onto its territory.
Then do your job and keep the weapons out, habibi.
"It must be strictly emphasized that any Israeli move in this direction will lead to a serious threat to Egyptian-Israeli relations," Diaa Rashwan, head of Egypt’s State Information Service, says in an online statement.
Egypt isn’t going to attack Israel — they’d get their teeth kicked in. Not to mention that even the Biden administration would feel the need to cut off all funds, weapons, and other special treatment given Egypt for sticking to the peace treaty.
Rashwan says Gaza’s western border is secure and that Israeli claims that weapons were being smuggled from Egypt into Gaza are false.

#3  What ties, you piece of camel sh*t? Did all these Nork weapons were transported to Hamas by magic - without going through Egypt?

#2  How does Emir Rashwan imagine those weapons got to Gaza? Not through Israel, one imagines.

#1  Rashwan says Gaza’s western border is secure and that Israeli claims that weapons were being smuggled from Egypt into Gaza are false.

And if you'd put him on lie detector, you'd find he really believes that. That's the problem in dealing with Arabs - half the time they live in the fantasy world.
