A leader of the Resistance factions has stated that Cairo's role in repelling the Israeli invasion of Rafah is the most significant, particularly because it threatens Egypt's security.

A Palestinian Resistance factions' official told Al Mayadeen that Cairo's role in repelling the Israeli invasion of Rafah is the most significant, particularly because it threatens Egypt's security. 

The official called on the Egyptian authorities to immediately mobilize to "thwart the Nazi occupation's military operation and plans," as well as visit the Palestinian-Egyptian border to tangibly witness the dangers looming on Arab national security. 

He warned that the war would border Egypt and threaten its sovereignty and national security, and noted the consequences the invasion of Rafah would have on the entire region. 

Nationally, the Israeli threats of invading Rafah would put over 1.5 million Palestinian refugees at risk of ethnic cleansing, the Resistance leader emphasized. Adding that the occupation's displacement plans must not be achieved, he ascertained that the Palestinian people reject all attempts at their displacement, will not leave even if forced, and will only return to the homes they have been forcibly displaced from.

Egypt threatens to suspend 'peace accords'

Earlier on Sunday, Egypt threatened to dissolve its normalization agreement with "Israel" if the occupation deployed condensed forces along its border with the Gazan city of Rafah.

Two Egyptian officials and a Western diplomat stated that in case "Israel" makes the move, Egypt would be forced to block the Rafah crossing, which is currently the only humanitarian corridor that supplies Gaza with relief aid. 

This comes a day after Cairo sent warnings to "Israel" regarding their diplomatic relations - that these may cease in case the Israeli forces launch a full-scale invasion of the city of Rafah, according to the Wall Street Journal.
