The Arab League and Pakistan expressed deep concern at the UN Security Council regarding Israel's recognition of Somaliland, fearing it could facilitate the displacement of Palestinians from Gaza. They cited Israel's past references to Somaliland as a potential destination for Gazans and warned against exploiting Somali ports for military bases. Somalia's UN Ambassador also rejected any steps aimed at relocating Palestinians. However, Somalia and Somaliland previously stated they had not received proposals for resettling Palestinians.
