(Worthy News) – The United States and Israel are reportedly discussing a US-led transitional administration in Gaza to oversee demilitarization and stabilization after the conflict, according to Reuters, which cited five sources familiar with the talks. The proposed authority, modeled after the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq in 2003, would operate without a set timeline, involving Palestinian technocrats but excluding Hamas and the Palestinian Authority (PA).
According to Reuters, Hamas, which seized control of Gaza in 2007, rejected the proposal, stating that Gaza residents should choose their own leaders. Meanwhile, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar suggested a temporary international coalition involving “moderate Arab countries” to manage Gaza, emphasizing Israel’s sole interest in security, as reported by Sky News Arabia.
The UAE, which normalized ties with Israel in 2020, proposed a broader international coalition to govern Gaza, conditioned on PA inclusion and a pathway to Palestinian statehood, according to Reuters. Abu Dhabi has not confirmed support for a US-led plan excluding the PA.
Analysts warned that a US-led administration could provoke backlash, reminiscent of the Iraq occupation, potentially drawing Washington deeper into the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Reuters reported. The US State Department did not confirm the talks but reiterated its stance on “peace and the immediate release of the hostages,” according to Reuters.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected PA involvement in Gaza, focusing on continued military operations to rescue hostages and eliminate Hamas infrastructure.
