Addressing a press conference, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeated his pledge that Israel will oust Hamas from power and take over security control, including by establishing a “security zone” on the border, Al Jazeera reports.
He put forward what he called “five principles for concluding the war”:
- Hamas disarmed
- All Israeli captives freed
- Gaza demilitarised
- Israeli overriding security control
- Non-Israeli peaceful civil administration
