From Al Ahram:

The width of a new military buffer zone established along Sinai’s border with Gaza this month has been increased another 500 metres, making it now span 1 kilometre, in an effort by the Egyptian army to take out tunnels used by militants to infiltrate the peninsula.

The Egyptian army said in a statement on Monday that the decision comes after the discovery of tunnels spanning between 800 and 1000 metres under the Sinai border, reported Al-Ahram’s Arabic news website.

The army’s decision to create a buffer zone on the border – 500 metres wide and 14 kilometres long – came following one of the deadliest attacks on its personnel last month, when 30 soldiers were killed in a daylight assault by militants.

Egypt’s Information and Decision Support Centre (IDSC) said a total of 802 houses hosting a total of 1156 families will be removed in the initial 500 metre evacuation.

As we all know, home demolitions for security purposes is one of the most heinous crimes imaginable. Demolishing 800 homes in a couple of weeks is a war crime.

Oh, I forgot. Jews demolishing homes for security purposes is one of the most heinous crimes imaginable. Arabs can do it all they want without worrying.
