Netanyahu: Hamas must disarm or ‘all hell breaks loose’

Quoting President Trump, the prime minister warned of the resumption of war unless Gaza is fully demilitarized. 

Hamas terrorists must give up their weapons, or “all hell breaks loose,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in an interview with CBS on Tuesday.

Netanyahu spoke in response to a question on whether Israel’s two-year war against Hamas in Gaza was over. He replied that Israel was giving a chance to the ceasefire agreement forged by U.S. President Donald Trump, which includes “both demilitarization and disarmament,” which are “not the same thing,” the prime minister said.

“Well, we agreed to give peace a chance,” Netanyahu continued. The conditions in Trump’s 20-point plan “are very clear: It’s not only that we get the hostages out without getting our military out, but that we would subsequently have both demilitarization and disarmament.”

The Israel Defense Forces eliminated four Palestinian terrorists who emerged from the besieged tunnels in southern Gaza’s Rafah area overnight on Saturday, the military said.

“IDF troopsoperating in eastern Rafah identified four terrorists who exited the underground infrastructure in the area,” stated the IDF in English. “Guided by the IAF, the troops eliminated all four terrorists.”

According to Israel’s Channel 12 News broadcaster, the military was checking whether the commander of Hamas’s East Rafah Battalion, which oversees the entire tunnel network, was among those slain.
