Elder of ZiyonHamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh on Monday urged Palestinians to spend their summer holiday in the Gaza Strip.Here are photos of Haniyeh's jog along the street adjacent to the beach.
"I call upon our people in the West Bank, Jerusalem, and the 1948 territories to visit the Gaza Strip and spend happy days with their relatives and brothers during the summer on the beach," Haniyeh told Ma'an while taking a break from jogging along the beach in Gaza City.
"Gaza is safe and stable, and it is a meeting point for national unity," Haniyeh said.
"From the bottom of my heart I say that there is no need for touristic normalization with the Israeli occupation. There is no need for our people to go to Israeli beaches in occupied Palestine. I hereby tell them to come to Gaza which will be happy with their presence."
Doesn't it look relaxing? You, with only your bodyguards, as everyone else makes themselves scarce.
No pesky women for you to look at during your beach jog.
It's a dream vacation!
By the way, this isn't the first time that Gaza tried to attract vacationers. This video, apparently not meant to be ironic, was made in 2011:
