Prime Minister Netanyahu during a visit to the Yellow Security Line in the Gaza Strip:

“Here, we are in control of the area. We will not retreat. We are stationed on this line and we control 60% of the Gaza Strip. We will do everything to achieve our goal—dismantling Hamas and making Gaza civilian-free. Gaza will no longer be a threat to Israel. In fact, this goal has been achieved to a large extent, and there are still things to do and we will complete it.”
