Zitat:Israel Is Preparing to Occupy Gaza, Reinstate Military Rule and Fully Control the Palestinian Population

Israel appears to be creating a smokescreen around the government and army's true intentions. While awaiting updates on talks with Hamas, preparations are underway for a major operation to occupy Gaza

Zitat:Hamas responded to the remarks made by Witkoff in a statement:

• Witkoff’s proposal, along with other ideas, is being discussed with mediators and contacts have continued in an effort to finalise the agreement.
  
• Netanyahu is the one obstructing the ceasefire deal. The resumption of its implementation depends on his position. He prioritises the survival of his government over the agreement and the lives of captives.
  
• We are open to any arrangements for the administration of Gaza that are agreed upon, but we have no interest in being part of them.
  
• We have agreed to form a community support committee in Gaza that does not include Hamas.
  
• We have no ambition to govern Gaza – our priority is national consensus and we are committed to its outcomes.
  
• The resumption of the war occurred with American backing. The US administration must not take sides but should instead pressure the occupation to return to the ceasefire agreement.
  

Zitat:Security cabinet approves 13 West Bank ‘neighborhoods’ to become independent settlements

Former illegal outposts to get councils, eased funding; Smotrich: An important step on path of ‘de facto sovereignty’; Palestinian Authority, Hamas condemn move. [...]

Far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who advanced the security cabinet’s decision in his additional role as a minister in the Defense Ministry, described the move on Sunday as an important step to the path of “de facto [Israeli] sovereignty” over the West Bank. The “neighborhoods” in question were built many years, and even decades, ago, as illegal settlement outposts, that is, without formal cabinet approval. [...] The decision to now formally split off the neighborhoods as new settlements allows the government to provide budgets for each of them individually, as opposed to designating money for it through its old mother settlements. They will also all get their own municipal councils. [...]

The new settlements were Alon, Haresha, Kerem Reim, Neriya, Migron, Shvut Rachel, Ovnat, Brosh Habika, Leshem, Nofei Nehemia, Tal Menashe, Ibei Hanahal and Gvaot. [...]

The Palestinian Authority foreign ministry on Sunday condemned the decision to recognize the new settlements as a show of “disregard for international legitimacy and its resolutions.” [...] The Hamas terror group also “strongly condemned” the move, as well as Smotrich’s remarks, describing them as proof that settlements were a “racist replacement project.”

Zitat:Gaza exodus accelerates as 1,000 residents depart in March
Since the beginning of March, a thousand Gazan civilians have left the enclave, N12 reported on Sunday.
An additional 600 people are expected to leave this week.
On average, 200 to 300 Gazans have requested to leave the enclave every week, according to N12, with over 35,000 total since the beginning of the war.

Currently, Gazans who need medical treatment and their family members, residents with dual citizenship, and residents with destination visas are allowed to leave the Gaza Strip, the N12 report explained.
According to an agreement between Israel and Hamas, any patient who leaves can go with one family member. However, Israel has decided to allow any number of family members to leave with a patient, which is what allows for such large numbers to exit the enclave.
