An Arab source reported that Israel is not allowing the Gaza Executive Committee to enter the Strip
In doing so, according to the source, Israel is not allowing Hamas to disband its government and to transfer power to the new government. Hamas has pledged to transfer power to the new government when it enters the Strip. We previously reported here (as of January 2024) about Hamas's agreement in principle to also disarm, and we added that the Israeli government prefers to promote the idea of transfer (which it calls voluntary migration), and is therefore refraining from advancing negotiations with Hamas. The source reports that the IDF continues to slowly and steadily take control of new territories in the Strip and is moving the Yellow Line further. Such an action by the IDF advances the goals of the Israeli government to commit the war crime of transfer in the Strip; however, at this time we have no information that the IDF will cooperate with the transfer; Other security organizations, including the MALAL, Mossad, and Shin Bet, participated in a meeting about two weeks ago regarding the transfer demanded by the Israeli government. See today in the main article, we reported that Chief of Staff Zamir hinted that Hamas might disarm in an agreement, without IDF intervention.
