Israel's expanded military buffer zones in Gaza, outlined in new maps shared with aid groups on April 29, reflect ongoing consolidation of control despite a fragile ceasefire in place since late 2025, fueling trader focus on escalation risks without a full-scale ground offensive. Satellite imagery from April 19 shows permanent bases under construction as US-backed reconstruction stalls, while strikes have killed over 800 Palestinians since the truce. Deadlock persists over Hamas disarmament and governance, with recent flotilla interceptions heightening tensions. Regional ceasefires in Iran and Lebanon may intensify Gaza scrutiny, though no major troop mobilization signals an imminent large operation.

A "major ground offensive" is defined as a large-scale military operation that involves more than 1,000 Israeli ground forces entering Gazan territory that was not under Israeli control at the start of the offensive. This excludes smaller raids, special operations, or limited incursions directly bordering buffer zones already under Israeli control.
The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.
