Foreign minister: At war’s end, not only will Hamas be gone, but Gaza’s territory will shrink
By JACOB MAGID

Foreign Minister Eli Cohen tells Army Radio, “At the end of this war, not only will Hamas no longer be in Gaza, but the territory of Gaza will also decrease.”

The line is an indication of the speculation from some analysts that the IDF will try and create a buffer zone inside Gaza to better protect Israel’s southern border towns so that they are not exposed to the kind of onslaught that Hamas carried out on October 7.

That's usually the progression when Israel builds settlements. Brief war, buffer zone, settlers move in, Arab protests and riots, and the military come in to protect the settlers.
