Analysis of satellite images has revealed that a new road is being constructed across the east and west of the Gaza Strip. Experts point out the possibility that the Israeli military is looking at dividing Gaza Strip from the inside into north and south.
Hiroyuki Suzuki, a specially appointed associate professor at the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Tokyo, said similar facilities have been seen in the West Bank. It is thought that it was constructed to maintain public order with an eye to the post-war era.
