Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that even if Hamas agrees to an agreement, the Israeli army will control the Gaza Strip.
In an interview with Sky News, reported by Yedioth Ahronoth, Netanyahu said: "We will do it anyway, there is no doubt about it - Hamas will not remain in Gaza."
He added that the war will end soon: "We are approaching the end of the war, a war on seven fronts, including Iran and its proxies."
