Israel's security cabinet has granted approval for a proposed international force to enter areas of the Gaza Strip not currently under Israeli control.
The decision, confirmed by an Israeli official, represents a significant development regarding the future security arrangements for the Palestinian territory.
This potential deployment is understood to be part of a broader U.S.-backed plan for Gaza that was initially presented in October.
Further details regarding the mandate, composition, and operational scope of the international force have not yet been publicly disclosed.
