the Israeli military would not withdraw from Gaza until Hamas undergoes “genuine disarmament, not fictitious disarmament,” which he defined as including “all weaponry.”
Recently, he was involved in attempts to restore Hamas’s governance in Gaza, deception on the issue of demilitarizing the strip, and assisting in carrying out terrorist acts against the IDF and Israeli civilians.
Israel did not agree with the framework and won’t withdraw from its current lines until Hamas is completely disarmed.
The military will not make any withdrawal until Hamas is truly disarmed and will continue to thwart threats against our forces and citizens.
