Greece and Cyprus have been stated to be a target for Israeli "investors" and settlers, as a part of the EU it is a safe retreat from counterstrikes onto Israel from the countries it bombs. About 60% of all land and property purchases from foreigners in Greece are done by Israelis.

And on top of that recently massive amounts of public land/beaches in Vlore was sold to Israel by Albanian president Edi Rama. Barbwire fences have been put up around the beaches and land and have been closed down to the public, including one of the very few islands that Albania has.

Said island also has one of the last deltas in Europe, which is considered a reserve due to its importance for the local environment/ecosystem. And development on it has already begun, without announcement. Many trees on the fenced out land have been cut. Locals aren't allowed to go past the fence, many of whom also own property behind it and are being cut off of their land.

There has been protests, the fences were taken down once but they were reinstalled and are now being patrolled by Albania's own police.

Edit: it turns out I was wrong about a few things, first, the Israeli investors in Greece account for 40-50% of foreign land purchases, with the highest estimate I could find saying 57%
