Israel's Cabinet approved a plan to seize more land in Gaza and move Palestinians to a designated zone with food and supplies provided by U.S. security contractors using facial recognition screening.
The aid proposal would be a major shift in Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza, which the United Nations rejects as inhumane. The plan would shutter hundreds of soup kitchens and aid centers across the territory, restricting food supply to an Israeli military-guarded area in southern Gaza.
A senior defense official said the new military maneuver and aid plan, titled Operation Gideon's Chariots, would be put on hold until President Trump completes his visit to Gulf Arab countries next week to allow the chance for a ceasefire and hostage release deal with Hamas.
Details of Israel's proposal were shared with NPR by six people, including current and former U.S. and Israeli officials, with knowledge of Israel's aid plans. They spoke on condition of anonymity to divulge elements of the aid plan that have not been formally announced.
