Israel Has Now Openly Said It Wants To Occupy Gaza Indefinitely, Expanding Its Military Operations

Israel has now openly said it wants to occupy Gaza indefinitely, expanding its military operation.

On May 5, prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is going to fully take over Gaza.

The Israeli cabinet has approved the operation "Gideon's Chariots" on May 5, and Israeli forces have launched intensive attacks since then.

Israel would forcibly move all Palestinians in Gaza to the south. It said it would also be in control of distributing aid in the Strip.

It is planning its plan aims to defeat and dismantle Hamas. It has moved people repeatedly to "safe zones" then attacked them anyway.

It has already occupied about one-third of Gaza, according to the UN. It has also been blocking aid from entering Gaza since March 2.

Since it began its new plan, it has launched attacks across the Strip, killing over 55.

Hamas rejected Israel's plan, saying Israel is using aid as "political blackmail."
