Details: Asked about this, Netanyahu said that after the war, Israel would retain "overall security control, including the capacity to go in whenever we want to eliminate terrorists who may pop up again."
Quote: "I will tell you what there will not be. There will not be Hamas.
There will also not be a civil authority that educates its children to hate Israel, to kill Israelis, to eliminate the State of Israel.
There cannot be an authority that pays the families of murderers [amounts] based on the number they murdered.
There cannot be an authority whose leader still has not condemned the terrible [7 October] massacre 30 days later."
"There needs to be something else there. But in any case, we must have security control.
I insist upon it. There may be pressure on this issue. I don’t intend to cave."
"Completion of the task [of the war in Gaza] requires that on the day after Hamas, another Hamas cannot rise there."
Reminder: US President Joe Biden said that Hamas must be destroyed, but the Palestinian state must be preserved.
Reminder:
- On 7 October, Hamas launched a large-scale rocket attack on Israel.
- On the night of 8-9 October, Israeli aircraft conducted further strikes on the Gaza Strip to "devastate the capabilities of the Hamas terror group". It was reported that the soldiers had bombed not only the homes of commanders but also the houses of all militants. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said it had attacked 500 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad targets overnight.
- It was also reported that Israeli forces have regained control over all settlements on the border with Gaza.
On 10 October, Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Galant stated that Israel was moving to a "full offence" against the Gaza Strip.
