Gazans wishing to move away from Hamas exist, and a maternal health initiative could create the conditions under which Gazans can change their society.

If Gaza is once again allowed to be under the bombardment of Israel and the terror of Hamas, then the ceasefire will officially come to an end and Hamas will control the territory.

As the Board of Peace awaits a response, short-term initiatives will continue to be advanced in areas not under Hamas control, a source told The Jerusalem Post.

"The Gaza committee is an Israeli recipe for reinforcing Palestinian division," Rajoub said. "We should never have agreed to or accepted the committee under any circumstances."

An official explained that a major problem has arisen due to on-the-ground dynamics. "Hamas is dragging its feet, and the US is finding it difficult to apply leverage on it," he noted.

Netanyahu acknowledged his tense call with President Trump earlier this week, saying that the two have “tactical disagreements,” but highlighted that  they “agree on the main things.”

Representatives of Trump-appointed BoP director general Nickolay Mladenov submitted an official request for permission to the IDF, KAN stated.

The organizations involved have also offered alternative solutions to kickstart the Gazan economy, which the trust stressed is a key element in reconstructing the strip.
