Israel’s far-right National Missions Minister Orit Strock said the Israeli government would be dismantled if the army pulled out of Gaza and the Philadelphi Corridor, Israeli N12 News reported.
“If they take us out of [Gaza's] Netzarim road, from the Philadelphi route...we will not stay in the government,” Strock said during a visit to the Gaza border community of Kerem Shalom.
“The government will be dismantled. This is on the prime minister's table, and he knows it very well.”
Israel created the Netzarim corridor, bisecting Gaza from east to west, following its ground invasion.
The Philadelphi Corridor is a 14-km long, 100-metre-wide buffer zone that runs along the entire border between Gaza and Egypt.
