Israel’s main goal in Gaza is the realisation of its long-standing plan to create the Ben-Gurion Canal, writes the Turkish portal Haber7.
This new route will not only compete with the Suez Canal and hit Egypt and other Middle Eastern countries, but will also become a threat to China, experts warn.
Such a situation could hit the Strait of Hormuz, which transmits 30 per cent of the world’s energy, as well as shake China’s “One Belt, One Road” project and strategic balances in the Mediterranean. According to experts, this could provoke a third world war.
