Israel approves plan to seize all of Gaza and hold it indefinitely, officials say

Israel’s security cabinet has authorized an expanded military campaign aimed at capturing and maintaining control over the entire Gaza Strip following the breakdown of the ceasefire in mid-March 2025.
The plan builds on resumed ground operations that began after Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack which killed over 1,200 Israelis and took roughly 250 hostages.
The military plans to call up a large number of reservists and relocate Gaza's residents to the southern part of the enclave while continuing to enforce a blockade that limits humanitarian aid.
Hamas-Run Gaza health officials report over 52,000 Palestinians killed, mostly civilians, amid a worsening humanitarian crisis caused by displacement, famine, and aid shortages.
The operation seeks to neutralize Hamas and secure the release of hostages, but it prompts worries about escalating violence, severe humanitarian consequences, and widespread international criticism.
