Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz says the country will retain control of a buffer zone between Gaza and Egypt, including the critical Philadelphi Corridor, even if a deal is reached to end the war.

Speaking during a visit to the new “Morag corridor” between the southern Gaza cities of Rafah and Khan Younis, Katz said the Israeli government is also working to advance Trump’s plan to forcibly displace Palestinians from Gaza.

“Large areas are being seized and added to Israel’s security zones, leaving Gaza smaller and more isolated,” said Katz.
