WHAT ISRAEL’S STRATEGIC CORRIDOR IN GAZA REVEALS ABOUT ITS POSTWAR PLANS

Analysts say the buildup of the Netzarim Corridor is part of a large-scale
project by the Israeli military to reshape Gaza and entrench its presence there.

Israeli troops are fortifying a strategic corridor that carves Gaza in two,
building bases, taking over civilian structures and razing homes, according to
satellite imagery and other visual evidence — an effort that military analysts
and Israeli experts say is part of a large-scale project to reshape the Strip
and entrench the Israeli military presence there.




ISRAEL-GAZA WAR

The Israel-Gaza war has gone on for six months, and tensions have spilled into
the surrounding region.

The war: On Oct. 7, Hamas militants launched an unprecedented cross-border
attack on Israel that included the taking of civilian hostages at a music
festival. (See photos and videos of how the deadly assault unfolded). Israel
declared war on Hamas in response, launching a ground invasion that fueled the
biggest displacement in the region since Israel’s creation in 1948.

Gaza crisis: In the Gaza Strip, Israel has waged one of this century’s most
destructive wars, killing tens of thousands and plunging at least half of the
population into “famine-like conditions.” For months, Israel has resisted
pressure from Western allies to allow more humanitarian aid into the enclave.

U.S. involvement: Despite tensions between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu and some U.S. politicians, including President Biden, the United
States supports Israel with weapons, funds aid packages, and has vetoed or
abstained from the United Nations’ cease-fire resolutions.

History: The roots of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and mistrust are deep and
complex, predating the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948. Read more
on the history of the Gaza Strip.
