A senior U.S. diplomat has stated that Israel does not intend to maintain administrative control over Gaza following recent hostilities. According to the official, Israeli authorities are instead looking to transfer governance responsibilities to an entity that will not engage in hostile activities.
The official emphasized that the future governing body must demonstrate a commitment to preventing security threats, including tunnel construction, cross-border attacks, and acts of violence against Israeli citizens. The comments came during a television interview where the diplomat outlined the necessary conditions for any future administrative arrangement in the territory.
The statement reflects ongoing discussions about Gaza’s political future, with international attention focused on establishing stable governance structures that can ensure regional security while addressing humanitarian needs in the area.
