US mulls dividing Gaza into 'green zone' & 'red zone' as it struggles to draw a reconstruction plan: Report
The US plans to start Gaza reconstruction in a green zone under Israeli and international control, while leaving a red zone in ruins after two years of war destroyed over 80% of buildings.
- US planners propose dividing Gaza along the yellow line into a green zone under Israeli and international military control, with the red zone remaining off-limits, as last month’s withdrawal line may become de facto border.
- Faced with widespread destruction and steep costs, Gaza requires large-scale reconstruction after two years of war that destroyed more than 80 per cent of buildings, while Israel still controls over 53 per cent of the territory.
- Under the draft, foreign forces would initially deploy alongside Israeli soldiers in eastern Gaza, while the US seeks a United Nations mandate and proposes a Board of Peace to govern, linking reforms to a self-determination pathway.
- European officials warn the yellow line could become a de facto partition, while Russia, China, and some Arab countries oppose a UN stabilisation mandate and the 'Board of Peace'.
- The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon, linking a credible pathway to statehood with Palestinian Authority reforms and Gaza redevelopment, the US draft circulated this week states.
