Report: De Facto Partition of Gaza Increasingly Likely

  • Under the first stage that took effect on October 10, the Israeli military controls 53 per cent of Gaza territory, making a de facto partition between Israeli- and Hamas-controlled areas increasingly likely.
  • Hamas refuses to disarm while Israel rejects Palestinian Authority involvement, and European and Arab states are reluctant to take roles beyond peacekeeping, limiting multinational participation.
  • Nearly all Gaza's 2 million people are crammed into tent camps and rubble, reconstruction costs are estimated at $70 billion, and Hamas released the last 20 living hostages.
  • Reconstruction now appears likely to be limited to the Israeli-controlled area, as six European officials said the plan is effectively stalled and U.S. Vice President JD Vance and Jared Kushner last month proposed model zones.
  • Jordanian foreign minister Ayman Safadi warned `We cannot have a fragmentation of Gaza`, officials cautioned about years of separation, and the U.S. drafted a U.N. Security Council resolution for a two-year multinational force mandate.
