The Prime Minister also tells Israelis that Hamas will be disarmed before Phase II will be implemented, and warns Iran
After the last hostage's body was returned to Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu laid out what he sees as the future for Gaza and warned Iran once more against attacking Israel.
In an address to the nation, followed by a press conference, Netanyahu detailed what he considers to be Israel's victories and how he plans to respond to the challenges ahead.
He stated, "Absolute victory rests on three things: the return of all our hostages, the dismantling of Hamas's weapons, and the demilitarization of Gaza. Only in this way will we ensure that Gaza no longer poses a threat to the State of Israel."
