A detailed investigation by the BBC has uncovered alarming evidence suggesting that the ‘Israeli’ military is maintaining control over significantly larger areas of Gaza than those outlined in the first phase of the ceasefire agreement.

Using satellite imagery and on-the-ground documentation, the BBC found that the physical markers of the so-called “yellow line” have been placed hundreds of meters deeper inside Gaza than what appears on official maps.

The BBC estimated that if such discrepancies are consistent along the entire line, ‘Israel’ could be effectively exerting control over a much larger area of Gaza than permitted under the deal.
