**Postwar Governance in Gaza: Competing Models for the Future**

As Gaza faces postwar recovery, multiple governance models are emerging amid a fragile ceasefire.


Amid a rare moment of calm in the long-standing conflict, four distinct governance proposals vie for authority in Gaza’s postwar landscape.

Hamas, though weakened from nearly 16 months of warfare, still maintains control over most of Gaza. The recent cease-fire outlines a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces, yet key territories remain under Israeli occupation. Right-wing leaders in Israel are advocating for an increased military presence, hinting at the possibility of reigniting hostilities to secure their interests.

In an unusual collaboration, a contingent of foreign security contractors has been appointed to operate a crucial checkpoint across northern Gaza. The initiative was launched at Israel's request to screen vehicles for potential weapon smuggling and has been suggested by Israeli officials as a precursor to broader international oversight potentially involving Arab nations.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian Authority (PA), previously ousted from governing Gaza in 2007 by Hamas, has begun redeploying its influence. Recently, the PA started managing a border crossing between Gaza and Egypt, collaborating with European security officials, to gradually expand its operational scope across the territory.

As discussions continue for extending the ceasefire, these emerging governance frameworks reflect the complex dynamics at play in Gaza's future, where control, influence, and international cooperation intersect in a fragile environment striving for stability.
