For that, Admiral Hagari said, there had to be an alternative to Hamas in Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For now, Mr. Netanyahu has sought to avoid making a decision on how to govern the enclave after the fighting stops. The United States and other allies have said the Palestinian Authority, which oversees parts of the occupied West Bank, should ultimately take charge in Gaza, while the far-right coalition partners on whom Mr. Netanyahu\u2019s political survival depends support permanent Israeli rule in Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">As a result, buffeted between competing pressures, Mr. Netanyahu has mostly said no. He has ruled out both a Palestinian Authority administration and new Israeli settlements in Gaza, and has vowed to keep up the assault until Hamas is destroyed. He has said little about who will ultimately take responsibility for the enclave\u2019s 2.2 million residents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">General Shamni said Admiral Hagari\u2019s remarks seemed aimed at pressuring Mr. Netanyahu to take a position. \u201cYou have to decide, tell us what you want,\u201d General Shamni said. \u201cYou don\u2019t want the Palestinian Authority, OK. Tell us what you want instead. A military administration? They\u2019re not even saying that much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe government as a whole has no stance,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Yoav Gallant, the Israeli defense minister, said last month that Mr. Netanyahu\u2019s inability to make a clear-cut choice was moving Israel inexorably toward two unappealing outcomes: either an Israeli military regime in Gaza or Hamas eventually returning to power.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe will pay in blood and many victims, for no purpose, as well as a heavy economic price,\u201d Mr. Gallant said in a televised speech.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the meantime, Palestinians in Gaza face rising anarchy. There are no police to enforce law and order, and public services like trash collection barely exist. In southern Gaza, thousands of tons of humanitarian aid have been stranded on the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/06\/19\/world\/middleeast\/gaza-aid-chaos.html\" title=\"\">Gaza side of the main Israeli border crossing<\/a> because aid groups say it is too dangerous to distribute the goods.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Israeli military leaders are increasingly worried that they might be asked to shoulder that burden, said Amir Avivi, a retired Israeli brigadier general who chairs a hawkish forum of former security officials. \u201cThat is the last thing they want,\u201d General Avivi said, although he personally supports long-term Israeli control there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Some believe that the war\u2019s aims have been achieved as much as possible and are eager to wind down the campaign in Gaza and turn their focus to rising tensions with Hezbollah, the Lebanese armed group, said General Avivi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/06\/20\/world\/middleeast\/netanyahu-israel-idf-war.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>But the most important concern for the Israeli military, analysts said, is ensuring that hard-won tactical gains against Hamas, which had governed Gaza since 2007, did not go to waste.
