The Israeli army and the international forces will destroy the remaining tunnels of Palestinian movement Hamas in the Gaza Strip after release of hostages, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said on Sunday.
"The biggest task for Israel after the hostage release phase will be the destruction of all Hamas terrorist tunnels in Gaza directly by the IDF [the Israel Defense Forces] and the international mechanism that will be established under the leadership and control of the United States. This is the main point of implementing the agreed principle of demilitarization of Gaza and the disarmament of Hamas," Katz was quoted as saying by the press service of the Israeli Defense Ministry.
Katz added that he had instructed the IDF to prepare for this mission.
