"Israeli Cabinet Clashes Over Post-Conflict Strategy"

The Israeli government is experiencing internal conflict as cabinet members publicly disagree on post-war plans for Gaza and the handling of investigations into the October 7 Hamas attacks. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant proposed a plan for future military operations and a US-led task force for Gaza's rehabilitation, but provided little detail on governance post-war. Far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir faced criticism for advocating the resettlement of Gazans and the renewal of Israeli settlements. The international community, including the US, UN officials, and European and Arab states, condemned the rhetoric of forced displacement, with some labeling it as potential genocide. Prime Minister Netanyahu's coalition faces instability, with Benny Gantz criticizing the lack of strategic discussion and Netanyahu's party defending the need for unity during war.
