Netanyahu said Israeli forces were working towards a plan proposed by US President Donald Trump to displace all of Gaza’s 2.4 million people to other countries.
The premier said Israel would ensure overall security in Gaza and “enable the implementation of the Trump plan — the voluntary migration plan”.
Trump proposed that Gazans be removed from the territory that would then be owned by the United States and redeveloped, with no right of return for the Palestinians.
He later said he was “not forcing” the widely condemned plan but would “sit back and recommend it”.
Hundreds have been killed since the fighting restarted, with the Hamas-run health ministry saying on Saturday that at least 921 people had been killed.
The war in Gaza was sparked by Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures.
Israel’s retaliatory military campaign against has killed at least 50,277 people in Gaza, the majority of them civilians, according to the territory’s health ministry.
The resumption of the war in Gaza has also prompted the Iran-backed Huthi rebels in Yemen to resume launching missiles and drones at Israel.
On Sunday morning, the Israeli military said it had intercepted a missile fired from the impoverished country “prior to crossing into Israeli territory”.
The Huthis say they are acting in solidarity with the Palestinian people and have also attacked shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden on the same basis.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s office said he would visit Hungary on April 2 for a multi-day trip in defiance of an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court against the Israeli premier for alleged war crimes in Gaza.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban publicly extended an invitation to Netanyahu in November shortly after the ICC issued the warrant.
