The implications of Israel's plan to expand Gaza operations

Season 2025 Episode 125 | 9m 52s

The Israeli government voted to expand military operations in Gaza and could end with the reoccupation of the strip. Humanitarian officials warn that an Israeli plan to take over aid distribution in Gaza is unworkable, and more Palestinians will suffer. Nick Schifrin discussed the implications with David Makowsky of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy's Project on Israel-Arab Relations.
