In a sense, according to the newspaper, it is a modified version of the \u201cGenerals\u2019 Plan\u201d adapted to the current situation. It includes a vision for \u201cvoluntary migration\u201d from Gaza. At its core, the plan calls for a broad and coordinated assault on the Strip, evacuating all residents from the north, south, and center\u2014essentially from all regions\u2014and pushing them toward a narrow humanitarian zone in the al-Mawasi area. The plan outlines a complete \u201cevacuation\u201d (i.e., displacement), leaving no civilians in central Gaza City, the north, or Khan Younis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2190\" data-end=\"3064\">In response to a question from the newspaper about what would happen afterward, one of the officials involved in operational planning replied: \u201cAt that point, Hamas is supposed to be defeated or left controlling a small enclave.\u201d He added, \u201cThere will be an opportunity for migration. In the humanitarian enclave, residents (of Gaza) will be offered the option to leave. I don\u2019t know where to, or how, or whether it would be legal during wartime.\u201d The source noted that some people \u201csee this moment as a victory\u201d and believe it could be used \u201cas leverage to achieve other goals, including exile (of Hamas leaders) and disarmament.\u201d The newspaper noted that the source had no clear answer on how such a wide-scale <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2025\/04\/04\/israeli-military-furious-at-netanyahu-for-revealing-gaza-operations\/\">operation<\/a> could be launched\u2014especially one that may result in the death of the captives.

While reports have circulated that Hamas is willing to consider releasing up to five captives, the occupying state is currently demanding no fewer than ten.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3661\" data-end=\"4196\">The issue is not just about the number, according to Yedioth, but about the framework. Hamas is insisting on a return to the signed agreement, but from the perspective of the Israeli government, that is no longer on the table. The paper quoted an Israeli security source saying: \u201cEveryone knew we wouldn\u2019t implement the second phase. The only way it would happen is if Hamas surrendered. Then there would be no problem\u2014we\u2019d move to a deal, all the abductees (captives) would be returned, and Palestinian prisoners would be released.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"pointer-events-none h-px w-px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-edge=\"true\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watan-As the Israeli occupation army continues committing massacres against civilians\u2014part of the genocidal war it is waging on the Gaza Strip\u2014the outlines of a new plan are becoming clear.
