Pakistan is preparing to take action against Hamas in Gaza. The United States has requested the deployment of at least 20,000 troops. These soldiers will be tasked with controlling Hamas fighters and neutralizing their arsenal.
World News: Pakistan is now reportedly preparing to take a surprising step. According to reports, Pakistan is considering deploying its troops to the Gaza Strip. The US administration has requested Pakistan to send at least 20,000 soldiers. These troops will be responsible for disarming Hamas fighters and bringing them under control. This comes despite Pakistan having supported Hamas for decades and maintaining deep ties with many of its leaders, but now, under pressure from the US and Israel, Pakistan is said to be ready to act against Hamas.
Plan Formulated During Egypt Visit
According to reports from CNN and News18, the framework for Pakistan's decision was established during a meeting in Egypt earlier this month. It is reported that Pakistan's Army Chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, met with senior officials from the CIA and Mossad in Egypt. During this meeting, it was decided that Pakistani troops would neutralize Hamas's arsenal and bring its fighters under control in Gaza.
Why Pakistan's Changing Policy is a Subject of Discussion
Pakistan's policy appears to be undergoing a sudden change. Just a few weeks ago, violent protests erupted in Pakistan over the Israel-Hamas ceasefire, resulting in several deaths. Pakistan has not yet recognized Israel as a state and has historically stood against Israel on the Palestinian issue.
So, what has led Pakistan to now be willing to take action against Hamas alongside the US and Israel? According to reports, this is being presented under the guise of "humanitarian rehabilitation and reconstruction," but intelligence sources suggest the real objective is to establish a controlled Pakistani military presence in Gaza.
Pakistan's Key Role in Weakening Hamas
According to sources, Pakistan's responsibility extends beyond merely acting as a buffer force. It will need to weaken Hamas in its active areas and eliminate its influence as per US-Israeli directives. Indonesia and Azerbaijan may also be included in limited peacekeeping roles alongside Pakistan in this mission.
Pakistani Soldiers as a "Buffer Force" in Gaza
According to reports, Pakistani soldiers in Gaza will act as a buffer force between Israel and other militant groups. Their duties will include providing security, assisting in the reconstruction of Gaza, and strengthening the administrative structure. This move is considered crucial for both Pakistan's international image and stability in Gaza.
The United States and Israel are reportedly offering Pakistan a substantial economic package in exchange for this cooperation. This includes concessions on World Bank loans, financial assistance through Gulf countries, and relaxed repayment terms. Intelligence sources claim that Pakistan will also receive diplomatic benefits, which will be "quietly rewarded."
