Israeli army authorises plan to withdraw forces from Gaza: Haaretz

Israel's military has approved a plan that would “swiftly withdraw” troops from large parts of the Gaza Strip, Haaretz reported on Saturday.

The report from Haaretz said that the military studied numerous ways to pull its troops from Gaza, including via the Netzarim Corridor.

Middle East Eye cannot independently verify this report.

The Netzarim Corridor is a stretch of land that divides Gaza into its northern and southern parts.

It stretches from the Israeli boundary with Gaza City to the Mediterranean Sea, and is being used by Israeli forces to monitor and control the movement of Palestinians.
