The document outlines Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's plan for Gaza's future after the ongoing conflict. Netanyahu proposes maintaining Israeli security control over the West Bank and Gaza Strip while rejecting the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. 
Netanyahu suggests that Israel should have a presence on the Gaza-Egypt border to prevent smuggling attempts, collaborating with Egypt and the United States in the area, including at the Rafah crossing.

Replacing Hamas rule and aid agencies:

To replace Hamas rule in Gaza, Netanyahu proposes working with local representatives not affiliated with terrorist organizations and shutting down UNRWA, replacing it with other international aid groups.
The spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas criticized Netanyahu's proposal, stating that it's doomed to fail. He emphasized the need for ending Israel's occupation of Palestinian land and recognizing an independent Palestinian state.
