Israel has recently identified a strengthening of the Egyptian military in the Sinai Peninsula, which could constitute a violation of the peace agreement.

This was what a security source told Amichai Stein on the i24 channel this evening (Monday).

The source said: "Egypt has deployed military forces beyond the permitted quota, is expanding port docks, and is extending airport runways.".

Israel emphasizes, regarding the entry of Egyptian forces beyond the permitted quota, that "such actions are reversible, it is not a problem to turn tanks back.".

The source also said that Israel is interested in maintaining the peace agreement and therefore will not change its deployment along the border.

At the same time, he made it clear: "Israel will not accept the situation. And it will not accept the violations by Cairo.".

Regarding the violations of the peace agreement, the source said that Israel is conducting dialogue with Washington and Cairo. "The administration in Washington is responsible for upholding the peace agreement and it must be ensured that the agreement is implemented as it is written.".
