The Israeli occupation army intends to remain in Gaza until the end of 2025

The Israeli newspaper Haaretz said on Wednesday that the Israeli occupation army apparently intends to remain in the Gaza Strip until at least the end of 2025, and plans to retain at least 4 large areas in different parts of the Strip.


The newspaper reported that there are similar scenes in different parts of the Gaza Strip showing the Israeli army expanding roads and establishing large sites and long-term infrastructure, including across roads that used to lead to Israeli settlements.


The newspaper quoted an Israeli officer in Gaza as saying, "The reality on the ground shows that the Israeli army will not leave Gaza before 2026. It is clear that the roads are not being paved for ground maneuvers or raids carried out by forces in various places."


He added: "These roads lead to places, some of which have already been cleared of settlements. I am not aware of any intention to rebuild them, as this is not something we are told explicitly, but everyone knows where things are going."


Haaretz pointed out that there are military data revealing that the Israeli army began weeks ago to destroy existing buildings and infrastructure in a way that does not allow anyone to live in them, as well as to build some roads, and even prepare to build more permanent military facilities.


A senior Israeli army commander who previously served in Gaza said that the only thing that is required of the forces deployed in the Strip is to move the population to the south, according to the newspaper.
