Israel is preventing the construction of a military base in the Gaza Strip intended for international stabilization forces as part of an American settlement plan, according to the British newspaper The Guardian. Citing a source familiar with the project, the report states that Israeli authorities have not issued construction permits, despite an American company winning the tender for the base two months ago. The facility is designed to house 150 soldiers, but contractors and trucks are currently prohibited from entering Gaza. The source indicated that without the deployment of international stabilization forces, the reconstruction of Gaza is impossible, as construction equipment cannot be delivered, and essential life-support systems cannot be installed without security assurances. The US-led "Peace Council" reportedly hopes Israel will approve the project after the Knesset elections scheduled for October 27. Until approval is granted, construction remains blocked.
