ai generated text

Israel's top army spokesman, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, stated that Hamas cannot be completely eliminated from Gaza. Despite over eight months of war, the Islamist militants have not been ousted from the region. Hagari suggested that if Israel does not provide an alternative to Hamas, the group will continue to exist.

    1. The requirement to select means and methods of warfare that avoid or at the very least minimise to every extent civilian harm appears to have been consistently violated in Israel's bombing campaign.
    1. Hamas is an ideology, we cannot eliminate an ideology.
    2. To say that we are going to make Hamas disappear is to throw sand in people's eyes. If we don't provide an alternative, in the end, we will have Hamas.
    3. Something that will make the population realise that someone else is distributing the food, someone else is taking care of public services … to really weaken Hamas, this is the way.
    1. Right now, it seems that for the first time after many years, there is an ongoing escalation between the government headed by Netanyahu and his entourage of reporters, analysts who are actually on his – unofficially – on his team, that are smearing the chief of staff.
    1. What Hagari is saying is challenging Netanyahu and saying, actually … you are hallucinating.
