Netanyahu's Gaza Plan Criticized Amid Hopes for Cease-fire

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposal for Gaza's future faces widespread criticism, while U.S. President Joe Biden expresses optimism for a cease-fire by next week.

  • Netanyahu's plan includes indefinite Israeli military control over Gaza, aiming to demilitarize the enclave and eliminate Hamas.
  • The proposal has been rejected by the Palestinian Authority and criticized by the U.S., Egypt, and the UN for undermining the prospects of a Palestinian state.
  • U.S. President Joe Biden hopes for a cease-fire in the Gaza conflict by next Monday, as negotiations with Hamas appear to progress.
  • The cease-fire agreement could include the release of hostages held by Hamas and Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.
  • The Palestinian Authority's prime minister resigns amid discussions on reforming the entity to be part of a postwar solution in Gaza.
