I make it now clear: At the end of the war, Hamas will not control Gaz — Yoav Gallant

"I have released all the restraints, we have (regained) control of the area, and we are moving to a full offense. You will have the ability to change the reality here. You have seen the prices (being paid), and you will get to see the change. Hamas wanted a change in Gaza; it will change 180 degrees from what it thought. They will regret this moment, Gaza will never go back to what it was. Whoever comes to decapitate, murder women, Holocaust survivors, we will eliminate him with all our might, and without compromise."

"[Israel] will topple Hamas rule in Gaza. We will eliminate its military capability. We will make sure this threat doesnt exist on our border. It will take time, and it will be lethal, powerful and forever."
