Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly has the backing of the Trump administration to begin annexing parts of the Gaza Strip if Hamas doesn't agree to a ceasefire proposal, local outlet Haaretz reported on Monday.
The move, the outlet added, seeks to keep far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich in Netanyahu's coalition, which is on shaky ground. The move is set to be presented to cabinet members following the approval of increasing aid flowing into the enclave.
