Gadi Eisenkot, head of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, declared on Thursday near the Gaza border that he would work to dismantle Hamas's military wing. He pledged that within 18 months of becoming prime minister, Hamas would no longer control the Gaza Strip. Eisenkot stated this could be achieved either by implementing the plan of U.S. President Donald Trump, which he noted was approved by the Netanyahu government, or through military and operational capabilities.
Eisenkot criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, asserting that as long as Netanyahu remains in power, Hamas will also remain in power. He accused Netanyahu, who displays banners reading "We will not surrender," of being the first to surrender to draft dodgers, his coalition partners, and Hamas.
Furthermore, Eisenkot committed to establishing an official investigative committee to examine the events of October 7th and implement its findings. He emphasized that this investigation is not a privilege but an urgent security necessity.
