Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir took to his account on X and spread his venom, calling for Israel’s permanent occupation of the Gaza Strip.
Speaking out against a US-backed mediation effort, he said Hamas “must be crushed” until it “completely surrenders”.
He also wanted Israel to block the transfer of all humanitarian aid and fuel to Gaza until all Israeli prisoners held by Hamas are released.
Israeli authorities, he added, must “encourage immigration and occupy the territories of the Gaza Strip in order to keep them in our hands permanently”, he wrote.
Earlier, Ben-Gvir told Israel’s Channel 14 that Israel taking part in ceasefire negotiations on Thursday would be “a serious mistake”. He said he told Netanyahu that the Israeli military is “doing a great job in Gaza” and “so why pull them out?”
He added: “Why should we go now and have a dialogue? Hamas is being crushed by this war and we can win it. I have clearly said that I hope and pray that Netanyahu will not conclude a loose deal. We are victorious and advanced.”
Last June, Israel far-right Smotrich also said that his mission now is to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state.
