Israel-Hamas, post war plans for Gaza
Report: Israel will cooperate with the Gaza Strip after the war
According to a report in the British newspaper, The Financial Times, Israel is developing a plan for the day after the Gaza war. Among other measures, it involves recruiting Palestinians screened by the IDF and delivering food through them to residents of the Strip.
The "day after the war" initiative is occupying much of Israel's attention, primarily due to its statements that Hamas must be weakened, and its refusal to transfer control of the Strip to the Palestinian Authority.
Today (Monday), The Financial Times reports that Israel is exploring an attempt to manage the Gaza Strip by creating humanitarian corridors that are not under Hamas's control. According to the report, the pilot program will soon be launched in neighbourhoods such as Atatra, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip.
The report also states that the IDF will conduct humanitarian tours through Erez Crossing for local Palestinians who have been screened (and are not affiliated with Hamas) and distribute aid. Initially, IDF forces will secure the distribution, and subsequently, responsibility will be expanded to those Palestinians.
According to the report, if successful, Israel will expand humanitarian corridors to the southern area of the Gaza Strip as well. For now, this is a solution that could satisfy Israel from both sides. One is the continuation of legitimacy, despite their owners' claims, and the second is, of course, ensuring that Hamas has no authority in Gaza.
It was also reported that the Israeli plan was seen as a way to put pressure on Hamas to promote contacts for a prisoner exchange deal between the terror organization and Israel.
