Defense Minister Yoav Galant has proposed a plan to administer central and northern Gaza instead of Hamas. According to the plan, humanitarian and relief aid will enter through the Beit Hanoun “Erez” and Al-Mantar “Karni” crossings, and not from the Rafah area.

The aid - which will be guarded by forces from the occupation army - will go directly to Palestinian merchants to prevent Hamas control without the need for intermediary relief organizations. It is inferred from the details of the plan that the Shin Bet Security Agency will supervise its implementation.
