Israel’s Plan for Gaza Occupation Receives Cabinet Approval

The Israeli security cabinet has endorsed a proposal to occupy Gaza City, a decision made amidst the widespread devastation across the region. This action is a direct response to the Hamas attack of October 7th, solidifying the ongoing conflict that has been going on for 22 months. The Prime Minister’s Office announced the approval of the plan, designed to defeat Hamas. The war has resulted in the deaths of thousands of Palestinians and left Gaza in ruins, leading to famine for approximately two million residents. During a pre-cabinet interview, Netanyahu stated that Israel aims to regain control over the entire region and transfer it to friendly Arab forces, who would be responsible for governing and providing a better life for Gaza’s residents.
