הכל היה מוכן עד לפרסום: נתניהו בלם את פתיחת המעבר ברגע האחרון

הערכה

The Israeli security establishment had spent months preparing to open the Erez crossing for goods, coordinating with the National Security Council and with American and German help, including installing inspection equipment. But after the plan was published, Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel Katz halted the move, clarifying there is no intention to open it. The question now is whether this was a genuine policy reversal or a response to political backlash from the plan becoming public, and what this means for future coordination between the defense establishment and the political leadership on Gaza crossings.
