February 9, 2025, Washington/UN Headquarters: Tensions are rising over the situation in Gaza. The United States has announced that it is “considering all options” for the future administration of Gaza, which could include Israeli occupation, multilateral administration, or local governance. However, the United Nations has strongly warned against the move, saying that “there is a risk of ethnic cleansing in Gaza,” which could amount to a violation of international human rights.
US position: What will the future hold for Gaza?
A US State Department spokesman said, “We are reviewing all options regarding the occupation or administration of Gaza. We must ensure long-term stability and security in the region.” Experts believe that this may include plans to establish a pro-Israeli administration, which could block the path to Palestinian autonomy.
Israel has already destroyed Gaza's infrastructure and continues to impose a strict blockade on the territory. Recent attacks have killed thousands and displaced millions.
UN warns: 'Ethnic cleansing' could occur
"The ongoing military operation and potential occupation in Gaza may violate international law. It is effectively moving towards ethnic cleansing, which is unacceptable," said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
The United Nations and human rights organizations are expressing fears that if Israel establishes permanent control over Gaza, efforts to permanently expel Palestinians from their historic land could accelerate.
Arab world and international reaction
Arab countries and the international community have reacted strongly to this statement by the United States.
- Türkiye and Iran: It has called on the international community to take strong action, calling Israel's occupation a "war crime."
- Egypt and Qatar: It has put pressure on Israel to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza, calling for a diplomatic solution.
- European Union: He spoke of the need for a sustainable political solution to avoid a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.
The future of the Palestinian people is uncertain.
Gaza residents are now in extreme Humanities Crisis Face to face. Thousands of families have been displaced, food and water shortages have become acute, and medical facilities have been destroyed.
The Palestinian Authority says, "Gaza is our land. No external force can determine our future. The United Nations and world powers must take a stand against Israel's occupation policies."
Next possible scenario
Analysts believe that the US announcement to “keep all options open” indicates that there could be a major change in the future governance of Gaza. But the question remains whether this will ensure Palestinian autonomy or further entrench the occupation.
