Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has directed the Israeli army to expand its control of the Gaza Strip to 70 %, building on the 60 % already under its influence and extending beyond the "Yellow Line." This move occurs amid a formal ceasefire that began in October and follows a series of Israeli operations against Hamas.

Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Government
1. There were those who said: get out, get out. We did not get out. Today we control... how much? 60%. Tomorrow we shall see.
2. We're squeezing them from all (sides). We'll deal with what's left afterwards.
3. We are currently squeezing Hamas. We now control 60% of the territory in the strip. You know, we were at 50, we moved to 60. My directive is to move to … 70%.
Israel Katz
Israel Foreign Ministry
1. We vowed to eliminate everyone who led the October 7 massacre, and that is what will be done: They are all condemned to death everywhere.
2. The plan for voluntary migration from Gaza will also be implemented – everything will be done at the right time and in the right way.
Gershon Baskin
1. At the end of the day, the only people remaining in the yellow zone, according to the Americans, are Hamas and other armed groups. And then Israel will be free to deal with them as they want. This is the thinking, this is the planning, and this is what I see happening in the coming weeks and months.

1. Every square metre has another displaced family, another makeshift tent, or some sort of improvised shelter on it. So it would be a death sentence for a lot of people who physically have no place to go.
2. The conditions there are already appalling. It is the single most overcrowded place on the face of the planet.
3. Netanyahu is now declaring the whole Trump deal, the framework for Gaza, to be null and void. That's what it means in a nutshell. There's no other way to spell it out.

1. We have seen killing, arresting and kidnapping of civilians living in these areas, and recently, there's an increase also in the militias' patrolling activities.
Wael Nayef Abu Al-Ajeen
1. It was at around 1pm when armed men affiliated with the militias entered our area. They went to the homes of the Abu al-Ajeen family there and informed them that they had until 10pm to evacuate all the houses in the area.
