Egypt Considers Suspending Peace Treaty with Israel Amid Gaza Conflict

The potential suspension of the historic peace treaty comes as Israel plans to invade Rafah, raising tensions and concerns over regional stability.

  • Egypt may suspend its decades-old peace treaty with Israel if Israeli troops invade Rafah, a city on the border with Gaza.
  • The peace treaty, established at Camp David in 1979, has been a cornerstone of stability in the Middle East for over 40 years.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu asserts that invading Rafah is crucial to defeating Hamas, but Egypt fears the move could lead to a humanitarian crisis.
  • The treaty's suspension could jeopardize billions in U.S. military assistance to Egypt and strain its economy.
  • Experts warn that voiding the treaty could have catastrophic consequences for regional peace and security.
