Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to take control of the Egypt-Gaza border as he said the war against Hamas would continue for “many more months”.
The Israeli prime minister said the 8.7-mile stretch of land “must be in our hands” to meet the goal of eradicating the military threat from Hamas.
“It must be shut,” Mr Netanyahu said in a press conference late on Saturday. “It is clear that any other arrangement would not ensure the demilitarisation that we seek.”
