US-backed Board of Peace grants approval to IDF’s widening control of Gaza, as Hamas continues to violate ceasefire deal and refuse to commit to disarmament.
The US-backed Board of Peace has granted approval to the expansion of Israeli control over the Gaza Strip, in a move signaling the organization’s growing frustration with Hamas’ refusal to accept disarmament.
Israel has in recent weeks expanded the area of the Gaza Strip under its military control, moving beyond the ceasefire’s original “Yellow Line” to a broader “Orange Line” as international efforts to secure Hamas’s disarmament remain stalled.
A senior Western diplomat told Israel Hayom that the move was approved by the US-led Board of Peace after Hamas failed to meet a timetable for laying down its weapons.
