Why is Israel moving to seize control of Gaza City? | Inside Story

The Israeli government says it's going to seize control of Gaza City, install a different administration, and try to eliminate Hamas. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier said Israel planned to take over the entire Strip. The Israeli military already controls around 80% of Gaza. The more than two million people living there have been bombed, starved, repeatedly displaced, and forced into temporary shelters. So, why did Israel make this announcement now? Is the prime minister trying to appease the right-wing members of his cabinet? Or is he trying to detract international condemnation of the man-made hunger crisis?
