Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that Israel was 'on the eve of a forceful entry to Gaza.' His announcement came just hours after his security cabinet approved a plan to seize and occupy the Gaza Strip indefinitely and move hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to Gaza's southern region. It also came less than two weeks before President Donald Trump is scheduled to head to the Middle East for talks with Arab leaders. Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, a resident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council where he heads the 'Realign For Palestine' project, talks about what Israel's threats of escalation mean for the people living in Gaza. And in headlines: The White House said it wants to pay undocumented migrants $1,000 to voluntarily self-deport, Trump said he wants to make Hollywood great again by levying tariffs on films produced outside the U.S., and nearly two dozen states sued the administration over its cuts to the Department of Health and Human Services.

  • It's Tuesday, May 6th.

  • I'm Josie Duffy Rice, in for Jane Koston, and this is What a Day,

  • the show that is obsessed with all the looks from the Met Gala last night.

  • The theme was super fine, tailoring black style.

  • Debbie Allen, Coleman Domingo, you're perfect.

  • Never change.

  • On today's show,

  • the White House wants to pay undocumented migrants $1,000 to voluntarily self-deport.

  • And President Trump wants to extend his love of tariffs to Hollywood.

  • But let's start with Israel's war in Gaza.

  • On Monday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel was quote,

  • on the eve of a forceful entry to Gaza.

  • His announcement came just hours after his security cabinet approved a plan to seize the Gaza Strip and occupy the territory indefinitely.

  • Netanyahu made the announcement in a video posted to social media.

  • Here he is, interpreted by Sky News.

  • We decided to take intensified action in Gaza.

  • That was the chief of staff's recommendation, to move, as he said, toward the defeat of Hamas.

  • He believes this will also help us rescue the hostages, and I agree with him.

  • We are not letting up on this effort, and we will not give up on anyone.

  • Not at all sure how occupying Gaza indefinitely is helping the hostages.
