Israeli ministers join rally urging return of Gaza settlements
Original: Israeli ministers, lawmakers join thousands in push to reestablish illegal Gaza settlements
Israeli ministers and lawmakers joined thousands of demonstrators calling for the reestablishment of Jewish settlements in Gaza, which Israel dismantled in 2005 and which are considered illegal under international law. The gathering reflects growing pressure within Israel's governing coalition over the future of the Gaza Strip amid the ongoing war and debate over post-war control of the territory.
Why now: The involvement of sitting ministers in a movement to restore settlements is contentious and touches the debate over Gaza's post-war future.
