Bezalel Smotrich said: “We can only end the war when we eliminate the movement of Palestinian factions in Gaza and they no longer have the ability to rehabilitate themselves.”
The minister added: “We can only end the war when we are able to renew settlement in the Gaza Strip and ensure a permanent and stable Jewish presence.”
He continued, saying: “The war will end only when we push the Lebanese faction movement beyond the Litani River, and when we change the regime in Iran.”
– The war on Gaza
Israel continues its war on Gaza, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to stop it immediately and the orders of the International Court of Justice to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and to improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza said on Sunday that the death toll from the ongoing Israeli bombing of the Strip since October 7 reached 41,870 dead and 97,166 injured.
– Attack on Lebanon
Since the 23rd of last September, Israel has expanded the scope of the war to include areas in Lebanon, including the capital, Beirut, through air raids of unprecedented violence and intensity, and also began a ground incursion into its south.
In its attacks on the southern suburb of Beirut, Tel Aviv targeted Hezbollah leaders, assassinating the party’s Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, on September 27, 2024.
– Response to the Iranian missile attack
The region is awaiting an Israeli response to the Iranian strike amid fear that the scope of the conflict in the region will expand.
It appears that Israel is ready to strike Iran directly in a more forceful and public way than it was before. Iran has a number of sensitive targets, including oil production sites, military bases, and nuclear sites, according to a report from the New York Times.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announced on Tuesday, October 1, that it had carried out an attack against Israel with dozens of missiles.
