The White House cautioned Israel against reoccupying Gaza, opposing Prime Minister Netanyahu's suggestion of long-term Israeli security responsibility in the region. White House spokesman John Kirby emphasized President Biden's stance that reoccupation is detrimental to both Israel and its people. The divergence in views emerged as Netanyahu hinted at a post-war Gaza without Hamas control, contrasting Biden's vision. Despite tensions, Israel clarified its intention for a security presence, not ongoing governance. The conflict's toll surpassed 10,000 deaths and 25,000 injuries in Gaza, prompting international humanitarian concerns.
