Lieberman: We do not seek another adventure in Gaza

Saturday 29-April-2017

Israeli war minister Avigdor Lieberman has said his government does not seek another military adventure in the Gaza Strip as long as the situation remains calm.

In press remarks to the Hebrew website Walla Lieberman threatened that if another war was imposed on Israel by the Palestinians in Gaza it would be the last and toughest and target all Hamas military leaders.

He claimed that Israel does not want to reoccupy Gaza and its only aim is to disarm Hamas adding that if the Movement discarded its rockets and tunnels the border crossings would be opened the population’s hardships would end and a seaport would be attainable.

As for the government’s efforts to retrieve captive Israeli soldiers and citizens in Gaza he said there is a crew commissioned to deal with the issue.

He added that the government cannot give false promises to the captives’ families affirming the file could take years to finish.
