Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering a controversial military plan to besiege the northern Gaza Strip, aiming to displace its residents and isolate Hamas fighters. The plan, known as the 'Generals' Plan', has been described as logical by Netanyahu and is one of several strategies under discussion. Former military officials have indicated that this approach would turn the region into a closed military zone, pressuring Hamas to surrender or face starvation. The Israeli army is also developing alternatives for distributing humanitarian aid in Gaza, amidst concerns over the welfare of civilians caught in the conflict. The situation remains tense, with a deadline for evacuation looming and the prospect of a complete military siege on the horizon.

  • The 'Generals' Plan', proposed by former General Giora Eiland, has garnered support from various senior military figures in Israel. This plan seeks to impose a full military siege on Gaza City after a week-long evacuation notice for residents. Reports suggest that approximately 5,000 Hamas fighters remain in the northern Gaza Strip, intensifying the urgency of the Israeli government's strategy. Netanyahu's comments reflect a broader military strategy aimed at undermining Hamas's control while addressing humanitarian concerns. The Israeli army's upcoming plans for humanitarian aid distribution could play a critical role in mitigating the impact on civilians during this military operation.
