US EditionAn Israeli plan to seize the Gaza Strip is met with alarm
- Israeli officials approved a plan on May 2025 to seize the Gaza Strip, expanding military operations after 19 months of intensive bombing.
- This plan follows Hamas militants' attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed about 1,200 people and resulted in 251 abductions.
- Since then, Israel’s offensive has caused over 52,000 deaths in Gaza according to Palestinian health officials, amid dire shortages due to cut imports since March 2024.
- Families of Israeli hostages, including 59 captives in Gaza, fear the worsening conflict, though Israeli leaders delayed operation expansion pending Donald Trump's Middle East visit.
- The approval of the plan has caused widespread concern across the region and intensified the sense of fatigue and despair among Palestinians, while mounting humanitarian issues reduce the chances of a ceasefire.
