Egypt: ’’Israel’’ Plotting to Retake Sinai

Egyptian Ambassador to the Palestinian Authority, Yasser Othman announced that the Zionist Entity is plotting to retake control of the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula.

In an interview with Palestinian news agency “Ma’an”, Othman stated that “Israel” has increased its rhetoric about lawlessness in Sinai and the subsequent “terror threat” to “Israel”, setting up a pretext to take control of the area.

The Egyptian official uncovered that “Israeli” officials, including Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, are attempting to give the impression to the outside world that Egypt’s post-revolutionary government is incapable of controlling its border with “Israel”.

Defending Egypt against claims that Sinai was not sufficiently under the control of the government, he stated that there “was a campaign underway to improve security in the region, particularly in the northern Sinai on the border with Gaza. “
