Israel: No Permanent Gaza Ceasefire until Hamas Disarmed; Iran's Enriched Uranium Remained at Bombed Sites
(Reuters) Speaking during Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's visit to Washington, a senior Israeli official said Wednesday that if Hamas agrees to a proposed 60-day ceasefire, Israel would use that time to offer a permanent ceasefire that would require Hamas to disarm. If Hamas refuses, "we'll proceed" with military operations in Gaza, the official said. The Israeli official also said Israeli intelligence indicated that Iran's enriched uranium remained at Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan, the sites hit last month, and had not been moved. The official suggested that the Iranians might still be able to gain access to Isfahan but it would be hard to remove any of the material there.
