Why did the egyptians turn against the israelites?

The Egyptians turned against the Israelites primarily due to their increasing population and perceived threat. As the Israelites multiplied, the Pharaoh feared they might become too powerful and potentially ally with Egypt's enemies. This led to oppressive measures, including forced labor and ultimately the decree to kill Hebrew newborn males, aimed at controlling and suppressing the Israelite community. The growing resentment and fear among the Egyptians contributed to their harsh treatment of the Israelites.
