Israeli generals' plan

The Israeli generals' plan refers to a siege strategy proposed by former Israeli general Giora Eiland during the Gaza war. The plan would evacuate Northern Gaza from its residents, and label all people remaining there as military operatives, thus allowing to block supplies such as food and medication from entering the area.

The plan was considered by the Israeli government, though was not officially adopted. However, there have been signs that Israel has implemented parts of the plan since October 2024, specifically during the Siege of North Gaza. The strategy has been criticized for its humanitarian impact, which some allege to be genocidal and ethnic cleansing.

Israel ultimately did not force out all the civilian population of North Gaza, and the implementation of the 2025 Gaza war ceasefire allowed displaced Gazans to return to that area, though the ceasefire has since ended.
