Who Will Lead Gaza After the Conflict? Four Strategies Under Discussion

As Gaza enters a fragile ceasefire, various governance models for the territory's future emerge amidst ongoing negotiations between Israel and Hamas.


Amid a prolonged conflict in Gaza that has lasted nearly 16 months, the question of who will govern the territory post-war is becoming increasingly urgent. With a fragile ceasefire currently in force, four competing governance models are being considered as Israel and Hamas engage in discussions to extend the peace.

Hamas remains the dominant authority in most parts of Gaza, albeit in a weakened state. Their struggle now is to cement their control as Israel is expected to progressively withdraw from the enclave. However, Israeli right-wing factions seek to expand military presence to maintain significant control, potentially reigniting hostilities.

A novel proposition comes from foreign contractors who, at Israel's request, have set up a crucial checkpoint in northern Gaza to monitor vehicle traffic for weapons, indicating a potential for increased international oversight in the region.

Meanwhile, representatives of the Palestinian Authority are taking steps to re-establish a foothold in Gaza, staffing a border crossing with Egypt in collaboration with European security officials, aiming to eventually expand their presence throughout Gaza.

The contrasting visions for Gaza's governance highlight the complexity and uncertainty of the region's political future as factions vie for influence in the wake of conflict.
