According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted on Wednesday that the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip will continue, claiming that Israel controls 60% of the territory and that Israeli forces will remain along the current demarcation line.

During a visit to an Israeli military post inside Gaza, accompanied by senior military commanders, Netanyahu stated, “We control this area. We are not withdrawing. We are staying along this line.”
