ISRAEL will give civilians in Gaza until October 7 to evacuate before they launch a full military assault to destroy Hamas.

The Israeli security cabinet has approved a plan for the IDF to advance through Gaza City in a decisive move to eliminate the terrorist group and secure the remaining hostages.

October 7 marks exactly two years since Hamas first launched an evil assault on Israeli civilians which killed over 1,200 people.

The disturbing premeditated murders sparked a deadly conflict in Gaza as Israel hit back with ground offensives and missile strikes.

Palestinians trapped in the now decimated Strip have endured daily gunfire, a lack of food and aid in the 24 months since, sparking global concern.

Israel has vowed to continue with their onslaughts until every member of the Hamas terror group are wiped out.

Amid growing international pressure for the war to finally end, Israel has announced their latest plans to achieve their goals in Gaza.

The IDF has said they will try to move the entire population in Gaza City to the south of the Strip before commencing with an assault.

This is said to be over one million residents.

It is widely understood the plan will continue in every region in the Gaza Strip under it is entirely under Israeli control.

The move is aimed at smashing the last remnants of Hamas’s grip on the war-torn enclave before handing it over to allied Arab forces.

Rumours of the plans had caused controversy earlier this week as Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer slammed the decision as “wrong”.

However, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu asserted that true security for Israel could only be attained by maintaining total military control over the remaining territory in Gaza.

He said his country was “well on our way” to ensuring Gaza “doesn’t pose a threat to Israel again”.

Despite authorising a full military occupation, Netanyahu stressed that Israel does not intend to re-establish long-term rule over Gaza.

Instead, he suggested the possibility of transferring control to Arab states or establishing “an alternative civil administration that is neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority.”

Netanyahu expressed in an interview with Fox News on Thursday: “Our aim is to ensure our security by removing Hamas and transferring governance to a civilian administration that is not associated with Hamas or anyone advocating Israel’s destruction.”

“We want to liberate ourselves and liberate the people of Gaza from the awful terror of Hamas.”

FIVE-STEP PLAN

Israel’s cabinet also signed off on five guiding principles to conclude the war — a roadmap that leaves no room for compromise with Hamas.

First and foremost is the disarmament of Hamas.

Israel has stressed that the terrorist group’s disarmament must be complete—not merely weakened, but fully dismantled—to thwart any future attacks on Israeli civilians and to dismantle Hamas’ military grip on Gaza.

The return of all hostages, both living and dead, is a non-negotiable pillar of the plan.

Israeli leaders have stressed that no resolution will be accepted unless it includes the safe return of every captive held in Gaza.

About 50 hostages are still held in Gaza — with officials estimating only 20 are alive.

Negotiations for their release broke down in July, and with each passing day, pressure builds.

Disturbing footage of emaciated hostages and starving children has provoked global indignation, while Israel maintains that Hamas is stockpiling aid for its fighters.

Another central principle is the demilitarisation of the Strip.

Beyond just disarming Hamas, Israel seeks to eliminate all terrorist infrastructure – from weapons factories to underground tunnels – that have turned Gaza into a launchpad for attacks.

The goal is to create a buffer zone of peace, free from rockets, terrorists and threats.

Israel also insists on maintaining security control over Gaza.

While it has no desire to govern the territory, it does intent to ensure that no hostile elements can regroup or rearm.

That means a continued Israeli military presence and oversight, likely through a security perimeter, to prevent Hamas or any similar group from returning.

Finally, the war will only end once an alternative civil administration is in place — one that is neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority.

Israel wants to see a neutral, functional governing body installed, ideally backed by moderate Arab states, capable of running day-to-day life in Gaza without posing a threat to Israeli citizens or enabling terror.

This vision aims to create a new future for Gaza’s people — free from the terror, tyranny, and corruption of Hamas rule.
