The plan cites the "complete demilitarization"
of Hamas, closing Gaza's southern border
with Egypt and overhauling the territory's administration and education systems, CNN reports.
.
The plan comes after the prime minister has faced mounting criticism for not having a clear objective for Gaza after Hamas is eliminated.
.
Meanwhile, a negotiating team was sent
to Paris on Feb.
23 to try to reach a deal to end the conflict and release hostages.
Hamas attacked Israel on
Oct.
7, killing 1,200 people.
Israel's retaliation has left
over 29,000 dead in Gaza.
Currently, Egypt controls entry and exit to and from Gaza's southern border at the Rafah crossing.
Netanyahu's proposed plan would instead give Israel control at that border crossing.
Israel said that it will cooperate with Egypt and
the U.S. "as much as possible," CNN reports.
.
While it's not apparent whether Egypt has agreed to any part of Netanyahu's plan, an Israeli official said that the objective was "aligned" with America.
.
Ultimately, the plan reaffirms that "Israel will have security control over the entire area west of Jordan."
Amid Israel’s Rafah Move, the Islamic Resistance of Iraq launched multiple attacks with drones and missiles, hitting key targets including Israel's largest oil port. This marks the fourth attack within a week, following earlier strikes on Eilat, Shlomi, and Metulla settlements. The attacks surge amid escalating tensions since Israel's offensive in Rafah. Regional resistance groups, in solidarity with Gaza, target Israeli and U.S. interests.

protecting the civilians that
are in that battlespace, Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.
We’ve not made a final
determination on how
to proceed with that

Israel announced the reopening of the Kerem Shalom border crossing to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, just four days after its closure following a rocket attack that tragically claimed the lives of four soldiers. In a collaborative effort between the Israeli army and COGAT, the defence ministry body responsible for Palestinian civil affairs, trucks loaded with vital supplies such as food, water, shelter equipment, medicine, and medical supplies, generously donated by the international community, have begun arriving at the crossing from Egypt.
These essential supplies will undergo thorough inspection before being transferred to the Gaza side of the crossing, ensuring their safe and efficient delivery to those in need. Additionally, the statement highlighted the reopening of the Erez border crossing between Israel and northern Gaza, further facilitating the flow of aid into the Palestinian territory. This swift response underscores Israel's commitment to addressing the humanitarian needs of the people of Gaza, even in the face of security challenges, and demonstrates a willingness to engage in cooperative efforts to alleviate suffering and promote stability in the region.
