The post-conflict plan we've been working on with our partners would allow Israel to fully withdraw from Gaza, prevent Hamas from filling back in, and provide for Gaza's governance, security, and reconstruction. I shared some of its core elements today at the Atlantic Council.

@AtlanticCouncil It’s not a conflict, it’s GENOCIDE. And the people arming and committing it shouldn’t be deciding what happens in its aftermath, they should be brought to justice.

@AtlanticCouncil Bloody Blinken, the Secretary of Genocide. We all saw the parts you edited out. That’s your legacy.

At the summit last week on 4 March, a new plan for Gaza’s reconstruction was presented by Arab leaders as an alternative to Trump’s plan to expel Palestinians from Gaza. Our analysis indicates that this initiative—which has gained support from the European Council—includes an architectural master plan that carries forward key elements of Israel’s designed destruction of Gaza (as addressed in our Cartography of Genocide report with its proposal for a ‘buffer zone’, security corridors, and raid routes.

I will not let the world forget for whom we are fighting. Today at the UN Security Council, when instead of discussing the release of our hostages held by Hamas in Gaza or the escalation on Israel’s northern border, the Security Council chose to discuss lies against Israel and the situation in Judea and Samaria - I read the names of all our hostages so that the Council and the people of Gaza will remember them. Watch and retweet >>

A draft ceasefire deal in Gaza and hostage release has been agreed to in principle by Israel and Hamas, Arab, U.S. and Israeli officials told CBS News. If finalized, Hamas would release 33 hostages and Israel would pull back military forces, allow aid into Gaza and will release hundreds of Palestinians from its jails.

Ukrainian diplomats, intelligence, and security forces keep working to assist our citizens in Israel and Gaza. We have already evacuated over 200 people, mostly women and children, from Israel to Romania. There will be more flights. There are almost 260 Ukrainians in Gaza. Exit from there has been blocked to citizens of all countries, but we are working together with partners to enable the evacuation of our nationals.

Israel was meant to fully withdraw its troops from Gaza under the ceasefire signed in October. Instead of pulling back, Israeli forces are expanding and entrenching heavily fortified positions across the enclave. 🔗:

I want to thank President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump for his unwavering support for Israel. During my recent visit to Washington, I said that Donald Trump is the greatest friend that Israel has ever had in the White House. And President Trump shows that friendship each and every day. He has shown it through his visionary plan for Gaza, this is a plan which Israel fully supports. He's shown it by sending us all the munitions that were being held up. This way he is giving Israel the tools we need to finish the job against Iran’s terror axis. And he has shown it by fully backing Israel and putting the pressure to release the hostages where it truly belongs – on Hamas. Israel has accepted President Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff's plan to extend the temporary ceasefire by 50 days, during that time we can discuss the conditions for a permanent ceasefire that will end the war in Gaza. In Witkoff’s plan, half of the hostages would be released right away and the remaining half would be released if we reach an agreement on a permanent ceasefire. Again, Israel has accepted this plan. I accepted this plan. But so far, Hamas has rejected it. Hamas had also put forward positions for a permanent ceasefire that are totally unacceptable. Israel has decided to stop letting goods and supplies into Gaza, something we've done for the past 42 days. We've done that because Hamas steals the supplies and prevents the people of Gaza from getting them. It uses these supplies to finance its terror machine, which is aimed directly at Israel and our civilians – and this we cannot accept. We will take further steps if Hamas continues to hold our hostages. And throughout this, Israel knows that America and President Trump have our back. Thank you again, President Trump! Thank you for all you are doing to return our hostages, bolster our security and provide a future of prosperity and peace for all the peoples of the Middle East.

I was asked how Israel should respond to anger on the Arab Street. My response – if Israel had let Arab popular opinion dictate its strategy in 1947; 1967; 1973, it would have been destroyed. Israel should pursue its mission: rescue the hostages, destroy Hamas, and help architect just post-war governance for Gaza.

Israel is actively working to ensure civilian safety in Gaza. Our conflict is with the Hamas terrorists, not with the people of Gaza. We urge the civilian population to keep moving south for their own safety.

⭕️ China Renews Call at UN Security Council for Full Israeli Withdrawal from Lebanon China’s representative to the UN Security Council renewed Beijing’s demand for an immediate and complete Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory at an emergency session today. ▪️ “The sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity of Lebanon must be respected, and Israel must immediately and completely withdraw from Lebanese territory” ▪️ China urged countries with influence over the parties to “play an active role in helping to achieve a ceasefire as soon as possible” ▪️ Beijing said it “is ready to cooperate with all parties to calm the situation between Lebanon and Israel and restore peace and stability to the region” The emergency session was requested by France and backed by Russia, China, the UK, Denmark, Greece, Latvia, and Colombia. The remarks are consistent with China’s stated position at the Security Council throughout the conflict. China has previously warned that Israel’s expansion of ground operations and its so-called “buffer zone” risks further prolonging and escalating the conflict, and that “Lebanon must not become another Gaza.”

All the trucks you see here entered Gaza from Egypt. Every day, hundreds of trucks enter Gaza from Israel, from Jordan, and from Egypt in coordination with the UN and international organizations. The trucks enter continuously and without a quantitative limit. They go through a security inspection to prevent the smuggling of prohibited goods and the exploitation of aid by Hamas. Hamas hasn’t stopped attempting to take over the aid and other smuggling attempts. But we will continue expanding our efforts, facilitating aid for the civilian population – not Hamas.

This intense day is coming to an end, dedicated to advancing peace and stability in the Middle East. The EU remains fully engaged with global partners and the broader international community to advance the implementation of the Gaza Peace Plan. Peace, security, and dignity for both Israelis and Palestinians require political courage, sustained engagement, and collective responsibility. Our guiding framework remains UN Security Council Resolution 2803. Early recovery and reconstruction in Gaza can only be sustainable if anchored in a credible political horizon-the Two-State solution. Without that horizon, reconstruction will not deliver lasting stability.

⭕️ Secretary Rubio on Gaza Ceasefire: Rubio says the US, the G7, and regional partners are working on a new draft for the UN Security Council resolution establishing the International Stabilization Force (ISF). He says progress is “optimistic,” but complex, because many countries have specific security and political conditions. He stresses the ISF should not be a fighting force, because the ceasefire agreement already requires the demilitarization of Hamas. But it will need to provide day-to-day security in Gaza’s areas not under Israeli control to enable: – a large humanitarian surge, – reconstruction, – and civilian governance. Rubio says the yellow line will eventually disappear because “none of Gaza should remain under Hamas control.” The goal, he says, is a civilian Palestinian authority that governs all of Gaza once the ISF stabilizes the environment. Gaza’s government includes roughly 17,000 police officers who have been providing civilian security throughout the genocide — and who have been systematically targeted by Israel. Senior resistance figures, including Hamas’ Mousa Abu Marzouk, warn that any attempt to sideline or dismantle this police force, like U.S. did in Iraq, would trigger chaos and could even spark civil war. They argue it would undermine basic security in Gaza and ultimately destabilize the situation for Israel as well.

WATCH | Former Secretary of State Blinken and former diplomat Jamie Rubin say they had a “day after” plan for Gaza — a U.S.-brokered proposal to install an Arab-led security force that would block Hamas from regrouping and give Israel confidence to withdraw. Rubin was sent to hold talks with Arab and Palestinian officials, aiming to build support for the “Blinken Plan” — something that would eventually lead to “Palestinian-led” governance that excluded Hamas and required Arab states to enforce Israel’s conditions. Blinken admits Israel long resisted even discussing a postwar plan and refused to hand Gaza to the Palestinian Authority, which it had spent years undermining. The plan itself depended on a six-week ceasefire window, secured in Biden’s last days, to finalize the deal. It failed to materialize after Biden left office and Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire.

Israel has blocked aid from entering Gaza for over two months. Gazans are at risk of starvation. International law requires Israel to allow aid to get to civilians. Gaza is no exception to this rule. All European members of the Security Council call on Israel to let aid in now.
