The displacement of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip is a “red line” and Cairo will not allow any party to risk Egypt’s national security or sovereignty, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said on Monday.

The Israeli military body in charge of humanitarian aid to Gaza said the supply of tents and other shelter equipment to the territory would resume on Sunday ahead of the mass movement of Palestinians to the south.

Israel on Monday cancelled the visas of Australian diplomats who maintain ties with the Palestinian Authority, in an escalating spat between the allies after Canberra said it would recognise a Palestinian state.

Israel’s foreign minister said on Monday he had revoked the visas of Australian diplomats to the Palestinian Authority, following a decision by Canberra to recognise a Palestinian state and cancel an Israeli lawmaker's visa.

Israel said on Monday it would revoke visas held by Australian representatives to the Palestinian Authority, in response to Canberra’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state next month. Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said Australian Ambassador Ralph King has been formally notified of the step.
