Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has defended not having a plan for post-war Gaza after he was publicly challenged by his defence minister Yoav Gallant. Netanyahu said that no excuses should be made and the current focus of the war should be eliminating Hamas. Earlier Yoav Gallant in a televised speech said, “I call on the prime minister to announce that Israel will not rule over Gaza militarily. An alternative to Hamas governance should be established … Indecision will erode the military gains (of the war).” Meanwhile, Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh said that the Palestinian militant group will decide on post-war Gaza rule.
