'Israeli' Energy and Infrastructure Minister Eli Cohen claimed that 'Israel' now controls nearly 70 percent of the Gaza Strip and said the territory under its control "will only continue to grow" until it reaches "100 percent."
Speaking to Galei Israel radio, Cohen said 'Israel' could not allow Hamas "to raise its head even by a millimetre."
According to Cohen, 'Israel' controlled about 53 percent of Gaza two months ago. He claimed that figure rose to around 60 percent a month ago and is now approaching 70 percent.
The remarks reflect the 'Israeli' government's stated intention to expand its military presence across the Gaza Strip as operations continue.
Cohen's comments come amid mounting international criticism of 'Israel's military campaign in Gaza, with humanitarian organizations warning of worsening conditions for civilians and growing concerns over the humanitarian impact of expanding military control.
