Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the JNS International Policy Summit on Sunday the story of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah's assassination, and stressed that Israel will only agree to a nuclear deal that ensures Iran will not possess nuclear weapons.

Noting that Israel is fighting a seven-front war "which is really only one front - Iran and its proxies," Netanyahu stressed that there is still much to be done.

"We have to finish the war in Gaza, get our hostages back and destroy Hamas," he said. "Hamas will not be there and we’re not going to put the PA (Palestinian Authority - ed.) there. Why replace one regime that is sworn to our destruction with another regime that is sworn to our destruction?"

But after the war, he added, Israel will control Gaza militarily.

Israel will “in any case” control Gaza militarily, according to Netanyahu.

Regarding Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah's elimination, Netanyahu said that it was the loss of Nasrallah that "really broke" the Iranian axis.

"It was a terrific blow. Some people are irreplaceable. And so far, he’s been irreplaceable. And so having delivered that blow to Hezbollah, we also delivered a blow to [former Syrian dictator Bashar] Assad, because Assad was relying heavily on Nasrallah."
