“A journey of suffering”. That’s how a Palestinian man described his transfer from Gaza, through Israel and Kenya, to South Africa.

A journey so desperate that Palestinians paid thousands of dollars to leave their homes without knowing where they were going.

A journey forced by more than two years of Israel’s genocide.

In February, Israel and the United States proposed forcibly removing Palestinians from Gaza.

But Arab states rejected calls to take them in, and rights groups labelled it ethnic cleansing.

So, do these flights set a precedent for forced transfers – and signal a push towards the mass expulsion of Palestinians?
