Gaza government: Netanyahu seeks to occupy Gaza and prolong the war.
The State Information Office in the Gaza Strip issued a detailed statement last night in response to the claims made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the occupation regime at his recent press conference, stating: Netanyahu and his ministers, along with other Zionist officials, continue to repeat their claims that the war is approaching its final stage and that Israel’s goals are being achieved. The available facts clearly show that the Zionists intend to completely occupy the Gaza Strip and prolong the war of genocide and starvation against the people of this strip.
Netanyahu’s claim about not wanting to occupy Gaza is completely false
The Gaza government agency emphasized: Netanyahu’s claims about not wanting to prolong the war are lies and misleading public opinion. The officials and ministers of the fascist Zionist regime’s cabinet have spoken openly many times about their plans to completely occupy the Gaza Strip, and thus, Netanyahu’s claim that the goal is not to occupy Gaza, but to liberate it, is completely rejected.
Regarding Netanyahu’s plan to establish a civilian and transitional government in Gaza, the State Information Office in the Strip reported that the Palestinian people firmly reject any foreign guardianship and adhere to their inherent right, guaranteed by international law, to choose their leader of their own free will. The Palestinian people affirm that resistance in all its forms, as permitted by international law, is a legitimate right of the occupied people.
While Netanyahu has declared his goal to disarm Hamas and establish a civilian government in Gaza, the aforementioned government body in the Strip warned that the real goals of the occupiers in Gaza are threefold: genocide and systematic killing, destruction, and forced displacement of the people of Gaza. The statistics of the victims of the Zionist atrocities in Gaza reveal the extent of the ongoing massacre in the Strip; According to official statistics, 61,430 people have been killed and 153,213 injured.
