This comes in response to Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's announcement of a post-war plan, which includes
maintaining security control for Israel in the occupied West Bank and the
Strip.
During a press conference in Buenos Aires on
Friday, Blinken addressed Gaza’s future, emphasizing, "There are
fundamental principles we have laid out for months, and we consider them very
important." He added, “There cannot be a new Israeli occupation of Gaza.”
Netanyahu's
post-war plan for Gaza
On Thursday, Netanyahu presented the post-war
plan for the Gaza Strip to the War Cabinet. The document, seen by AFP News
Agency, outlines Israel's intention to maintain security control in the
occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, a proposal swiftly rejected by the
Palestinian Authority (AP).
The plan called for dismantling Hamas and
Islamic Jihad movements and releasing all captives in the strip. It also stated
that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) will oversee security across the
entire area west of the Jordan River by land, sea, and air.
Furthermore, it mentioned that after the end
of the war, the IOF will have an unspecified time frame to operate throughout
the strip to prevent the return of armed activity.
In response to the proposal, the PA
Presidential Spokesperson, Nabil Abu Rudeineh stated that Netanyahu's plans aim
to perpetuate Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories and prevent the
establishment of a Palestinian state.
