Defense Minister Outlines Israel's Objectives in the War Against Hamas

(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Friday laid out Israel's objectives in its war against Hamas in Gaza at a meeting of the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee. "We are in the first phase, in which a military campaign is taking place with [airstrikes] and later with a [ground] maneuver with the purpose of destroying operatives and damaging infrastructure in order to defeat and destroy Hamas," Gallant said. The second phase will be continued fighting but at a lower intensity as troops work to "eliminate pockets of resistance. The third step will be the creation of a new security regime in Gaza, the removal of Israel's responsibility for day-to-day life in Gaza, and the creation of a new security reality for the citizens of Israel and the residents of the [area surrounding Gaza]."
