Israel Gaza Takeover Claim: Israel Violates Peace Deal
Israel Gaza takeover claim has created global concern as Israel has now claimed control over large parts of Gaza, even after the peace agreement. The Israeli Army Chief, Eyal Zamir, says the “Yellow Line” is now the new border between Israel and Gaza. He also says this line will work as a modern defense line. Under the peace deal, Israeli forces had to move back from this Yellow Line.
Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire on 10 October. According to the agreement, Israel had to withdraw from the Yellow Line. This line marked the area where Israeli forces left Gaza in the first phase of the peace plan.
Israel Claims Control Over 53% of Gaza
Right now, Israeli forces control almost 53% of Gaza. Most of this area includes farmland. In the next phase of the plan, the Israeli army will leave more areas. The plan also includes forming a temporary authority to run Gaza. An international force will also come to the region. The plan includes steps to disarm Hamas as well.

Israel Says It Has Full Operational Control
Eyal Zamir says the army has operational control over Gaza. He says the army will not allow Hamas to become strong again. He also says the army is preparing for possible future attacks. Their planning will continue for many years.
Zamir also says the mission will not end until the last missing hostage, Ron Govili, returns. Hamas has returned 20 living hostages and 27 bodies of dead hostages. Only Ron Govili’s body is still missing.
Rising Casualties in Gaza
Gaza’s health officials say that more than 370 Palestinians have died from Israeli firing since 11 October. Since the Israel–Hamas conflict began in October 2023, the total number of Palestinian deaths has reached 70,360.
This update shows how serious the situation is after the Israel Gaza takeover claim. The peace deal remains uncertain as the violence and control continue.
