While Biden talked about Israel withdrawing from more populated areas of Gaza, Abdullah al-Arian, professor of history at Georgetown University, Qatar, says it isn’t known if there is an acknowledgement from the US that Israel will remain occupying parts of Gaza even after the ceasefire is reached.

“I think this is a major sticking point and one that Palestinians have continuously rejected that any part of Gaza should remain occupied,” he told Al Jazeera.

“There’s a major contradiction here and the fact that both the US and the Israeli side have said on the one hand, that they don’t want a future in Gaza in which Hamas has any kind of political role left.

“At the same time, this is an agreement that would have to be reached through negotiations with Hamas, so, how do you do that? How do you eliminate them as a political force and at the same time reach a negotiated solution that is agreed upon by all parties?”
