Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally unveiled his plan for Gaza’s future after the conflict with Hamas ends, placing a strong emphasis on the “deradicalization” of the Palestinian enclave.
The one-page document titled ‘The Day After Hamas” was submitted to the Israeli government for discussion on Thursday, setting out proposed actions for the immediate, medium, and long term.
It reiterates Netanyahu’s stance that the Israel Defence Forces will “continue the war until the complete destruction of the military capabilities and governmental infrastructure of Hamas,” and until Israeli hostages are returned and a robust security architecture is in place.
In the medium-term, the prime minister wants Israel to “maintain operational freedom of activity” in the enclave for security purposes, without any time limit. “There will be a complete demilitarization in the Gaza Strip of any military capacity, beyond what is required for the needs of maintaining public order”.
