Israel is pursuing an expansion of the Yellow Line—a demarcation zone it established—to gain full control over the eastern portion of Gaza, the Ma'an news agency reported. The Yellow Line has served as a buffer area separating Israeli forces from Palestinian civilians in the territory.
The move represents an attempt to extend Israel's territorial grip across Gaza's eastern sector through what military officials describe as a security measure, though the expansion would further restrict Palestinian movement and access in the region.
