Morag was once a small Israeli settlement located between Rafah and Khan Younis, back when Israel fully occupied Gaza. Now, Israeli forces are back, and their objective is to divide the coastal strip\u2014365 square kilometers\u2014into isolated zones, destroying entire neighborhoods in an effort to finally eliminate Hamas, which still controls parts of Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1222\" data-end=\"1547\">The Israeli army has ordered Rafah\u2019s residents to take shelter in narrow areas along the coast. Israeli security officials confirmed that the plan includes the permanent evacuation of Rafah, which represents around 20% of Gaza\u2019s total land area. A similar operation is already underway in a smaller area in northern Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1549\" data-end=\"1708\">These steps are reportedly part of a broader strategy to force more than two million Palestinians to flee cities and towns and concentrate along the coastline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1710\" data-end=\"2172\">In the short term, the goal is to create so-called \u201ckill zones\u201d where, in theory, only Hamas fighters remain. In the long term, Israel hopes the people of Gaza will \u201cvoluntarily\u201d migrate. According to Israeli officials, isolating the population on the coast also serves another goal: by controlling humanitarian aid routes via the Morag Corridor, they aim to cut Hamas off from access to food and supplies\u2014claiming, furthermore, that there is no shortage of aid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2174\" data-end=\"2469\">This would mark a significant shift in Israeli policy. Until recently, the Israeli military refused responsibility for Gaza\u2019s humanitarian needs, preferring to coordinate aid deliveries with international organizations. Privately, generals said they wanted to avoid effectively reoccupying Gaza.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15114\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15114\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15114 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/femmeh.jpg\" alt=\"Israel\u2019s Coastal Strategy Aims to Isolate Gaza and Force Mass Displacement\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/femmeh.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/femmeh-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/femmeh-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15114\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Israeli war crimes in Gaza<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<article class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-96\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\">\n<div class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto py-5 [--thread-content-margin:--spacing(4)] @[37rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(6)] @[70rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(12)] px-(--thread-content-margin)\">\n<div class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:32rem] @[34rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @[64rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto flex max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 text-base gap-4 md:gap-5 lg:gap-6 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<div class=\"group\/conversation-turn relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"relative flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-5\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"6d374a89-3b40-4686-abcf-ff8dca81caa4\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-4o\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full break-words light\">\n<h3 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"101\">Gaza Faces Scorched-Earth Tactics as Israel Tightens Control and Supplies Collapse<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2471\" data-end=\"2861\">Now, under pressure from politicians pushing to control supply routes and lay the groundwork for long-term Israeli authority, the generals have reportedly given in. Under the new plan, the Israeli army would distribute supplies directly to displaced civilians along the coast. The rest of Gaza, however, would be subjected to a scorched-earth policy designed to permanently eliminate Hamas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2863\" data-end=\"3470\">It remains unclear when this phase will begin. In the meantime, supplies are once again running low. The UN World Food Programme has shut down 25 bakeries that provided daily bread, as it can no longer supply them with fuel or flour. Families are unable to bake their own bread, as a kilogram of cooking gas now costs at least 250 shekels ($66), and a 25-kilo sack of flour is double that. Basic staples like sugar and cooking oil have disappeared from markets. Water is also increasingly scarce; the capacity of Gaza\u2019s main desalination plant has dropped by 85% since Israel cut off electricity last month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3472\" data-end=\"3771\">The UN says most Gaza residents now have access to only six liters of water per day. But hunger isn\u2019t the only life-threatening condition. Last month, Israeli forces killed 15 Palestinian medics near Rafah. The Israeli army claimed the ambulances were \u201cmoving suspiciously\u201d without lights or sirens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3773\" data-end=\"4087\">However, video footage obtained by The New York Times contradicted that claim, showing the ambulances equipped with functioning emergency lights and sirens. The medics, clearly marked in medical uniforms, were killed in a hail of bullets. The report also noted protests in Gaza over the deteriorating conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4089\" data-end=\"4229\">Israel violated the Gaza ceasefire first, launching airstrikes on March 18. Since then, its ground operations have killed over 1,000 people.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15647\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15647\" style=\"width: 916px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-15647 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/trump.jpg\" alt=\"U.S. Pushes for Hostage Deal and War End Amid Signs of Trump\u2019s Waning Patience with Netanyahu\" width=\"916\" height=\"643\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/trump.jpg 916w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/trump-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/trump-768x539.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 916px) 100vw, 916px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15647\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Trump-Netanyahu meeting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<article class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-98\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\">\n<div class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto py-5 [--thread-content-margin:--spacing(4)] @[37rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(6)] @[70rem]:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(12)] px-(--thread-content-margin)\">\n<div class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:32rem] @[34rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @[64rem]:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto flex max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 text-base gap-4 md:gap-5 lg:gap-6 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<div class=\"group\/conversation-turn relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"relative flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+&amp;]:mt-5\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"c0d7eaee-b0ff-4389-99b7-565f70a3629b\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-4o\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full break-words light\">\n<h3 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"92\">Israel Plans to Resume War Despite Possible Truce, as U.S. Pressure Wanes<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4231\" data-end=\"4468\">Hamas, reportedly fearing further public unrest, has shown willingness to accept a temporary truce lasting a few weeks\u2014during which a limited number of Israeli hostages (59 are still in Gaza) could be exchanged for Palestinian prisoners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4470\" data-end=\"4594\">Even if that happens, however, Israel intends to resume its war.
