(Ynet News) Lior Ben Ari - The Arab newspaper Al-Akhbar quoted sources on Saturday claiming that Egypt is exploring the possibility that other countries will agree to host Gazans who will be allowed to leave via the Rafah border crossing. According to this scenario, Egypt will accept hundreds of thousands of Gazans based on medical and humanitarian conditions, or those with immigration visas and foreign student visas. These individuals will stay in Egypt for a limited period at the beginning before moving to other countries. Egypt has started examining whether Arab countries in North Africa and the Gulf States will agree to receive immigration quotas. Egypt is also interested in promoting scholarships for Gazan students in the West and Turkey, allowing them to move there with their families.

Egypt told the U.S. that the displacement of Gazans into its territory would threaten its security.
