"Netanyahu's Postwar Vision: Unprecedented Control Over Gaza's Future"

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presents a postwar plan seeking open-ended control over security and civilian affairs in the Gaza Strip, which is swiftly rejected by Palestinian leaders and runs counter to the Biden administration's vision for the region. Cease-fire efforts are gaining traction as mediators prepare to present a new proposal, while the death toll in Gaza rises amid ongoing airstrikes. The plan envisions hand-picked Palestinians administering the territory, but faces criticism from the Palestinian Authority and the international community.
