He said at a news conference Saturday that Israel will not govern or administer basic services in Gaza after the war, but it will “continue to control security there,” and the enclave will otherwise be demilitarized. He also suggested militants have nearly been fully neutralized in their stronghold of northern Gaza.
Amid heavy bombardment, fuel shortages that triggered power outages, and Israeli forces planted in every direction, officials at Al-Shifa said needless deaths were already happening. Among the dead were two babies in the hospital nursery. Dr. Ashraf Al-Qudra, a spokesman for the Palestinian Ministry of Health, said at least one of the two died after the electrical generator stopped and the complex went out of service.
