The US Bloomberg agency quoted Palestinian Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayeh as saying that the Palestinian Authority is working with US officials on a plan to manage the Gaza Strip after the end of the war.

The preferred outcome of the conflict is for the Islamist movement (Hamas) currently operating in the Gaza Strip to become a junior partner in Palestinian liberation, Shtaeyeh said in an interview with Bloomberg on Thursday from his headquarters in Ramallah. The organization aims to establish a new independent state that includes the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Jerusalem.

Shtayeh said that the Palestinians should not be divided and that Israel’s goal of completely eliminating Hamas is unrealistic, and that there is room for negotiation if Hamas is willing to accept the PLO’s political approach and reach an agreement.

Phil Gordon, the US vice president’s national security adviser, held discussions with Palestinian officials in Ramallah about the “revitalization” of the Palestinian Authority, the White House said last Wednesday.

He insisted that a revived Palestinian Authority would be able to govern the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

According to the White House, he emphasized the need to strengthen the Palestinian Authority’s security forces to eventually take over responsibilities in Gaza.

In a related context, the British newspaper The Times said that a British military team is operating in the West Bank to prepare the Palestinian Authority to take over the administration of the Gaza Strip.

According to Israeli figures, 1,200 people were killed and about 240 detained and captured after attacks on Israeli cities on October 7, after which Israel pledged to eliminate Hamas.

More than 17,170 Palestinians have been killed and about 46,000 injured since Israel began shelling the Gaza Strip following the “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation in response to the occupation, according to the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip. Against the Palestinian people and their sanctity.
