Netanyahu: There will be no Palestinian state as long as I am prime minister

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that his government has rejected the 15-point plan concerning the Gaza Strip, affirming that Israeli forces will not withdraw from the territory unless Hamas is completely disarmed.

Netanyahu stated that while his government finds certain ideas within the American plan acceptable, it rejects others, emphasizing that “there will be no Palestinian state in Gaza or in the West Bank” as long as he serves as prime minister.
