Sources reported that Benjamin Netanyahu's government is making moves to ensure that the Security Council's mandate for the force expected to be deployed in the Gaza Strip is broad, allowing it to act forcefully against Hamas with the aim of disarming it.
The sources quoted officials as saying that "Israel demands that the mandate granted to the international stabilization force be under Chapter Seven, so that its responsibility is to implement peace even using force, rather than maintaining peace under Chapter Six."
Chapter Seven grants international weight and broad powers, as its activation does not require the consent of all parties, and it allows for the use of military force to impose order and protect civilians, in addition to disarming armed groups.
The Israeli moves come ahead of the expected vote on this matter in the United Nations Security Council, where the council intends to vote on U.S. President Donald Trump's plan regarding the Gaza Strip, which includes granting a mandate to establish an international stabilization force.
It is worth noting that the Israeli occupation and Hamas reached an agreement on October 9th for a ceasefire and prisoner exchange, based on Trump's plan.
Israel demands that the mandate granted to the international stabilization force be under Chapter Seven.
