Hamas warns against Israel's plans to 're-engineer' Gaza
Hamas warns against the Israeli regime’s plans to “re-engineer” the Gaza Strip and displace its Palestinian residents, reiterating that the people of Gaza are the only authority capable of managing their own affairs.
In a statement on Sunday, the Palestinian resistance group warned against “colluding with attempts at displacement and re-engineering the Gaza Strip according to the (Israeli) enemy’s plans.”
The group reiterated that a national consensus on a unified Palestinian strategy is the only way to confront the plans of the Israeli regime and its allies.
Hamas once again rejected “all forms of guardianship or mandate over the Gaza Strip or any inch of our occupied land.”
The US brokered a ceasefire agreement in October to put an end to Israel’s hostilities in Gaza and allow humanitarian aid into the besieged territory.
Washington is now planning for the long-term division of Gaza into a “green zone” under Israeli and international military control, where reconstruction would start, and a “red zone” to be left in ruins.
Under the plan, foreign forces will initially deploy alongside Israeli forces in the east of Gaza, leaving the devastated strip divided by the current Israeli-controlled “yellow line.”
The US military plan to divide the coastal strip into two zones of green and red, separated by a heavily militarized buffer line, threatens to forcibly displace Palestinians and place large parts of the territory under direct Israeli military control.
Mediators have warned of a situation that is “not war but not peace” in a divided Gaza, with regular Israeli attacks, an entrenched occupation, no Palestinian self-rule and limited reconstruction of Palestinian homes and communities.
