South Africa's foreign minister on Monday criticized a plane that arrived in the country with more than 150 Palestinians on board as part of a "broader agenda” to clear out Gaza and the West Bank through a network of chartered flights.
Foreign Minister Ronald Lamola did not say who South Africa believed had organized the chartered plane that arrived in Johannesburg on Thursday with 153 Palestinians, but his comments were seen as accusing Israel of being behind a campaign to remove people from the Palestinian territories and send them to other countries.
