Netanyahu Says Israel Intends to Take Full Control of All of Gaza

Netanyahu says Israel intends to take full control of all of Gaza as security cabinet meets​

The Israeli military says it currently controls about 75% of Gaza - territory containing most of the almost entirely displaced population of 2.1 million. These areas are mostly in the north and south.

Full military occupation would require sending in tens of thousands more troops to take over the rest of Gaza, including the coastal strip, the central region and the capital, Gaza City.

The coast includes al-Mawasi - an Israel-designated civilian "safe zone" where up to about half a million Palestinians are sheltering in overcrowded and harsh conditions. Military action in more areas would inevitably uproot many more Palestinians.

Israeli defence minister says criticism of Gaza City takeover plan 'will not weaken our resolve'

Israel has faced criticism from several world leaders, including from the UK and Germany, as the UN warns of more "killings and massive destruction".

This will be the best thing that has happened for the people in Gaza.

Completely wiping out HAMAS appears to be the only solution left.

Israel will soon be moving into Gaza taking full control.
