Benjamin Netanyahu, in a joint statement with US Secretary of State, Mark Rubio said in the US and Israel there is a “common strategy” when it comes to gas.
“We can not always share the details of this public strategy, including when the gate of hell is opened, because they will certainly be if all our hostages are not released until the last,” the statement said. “We eliminate Hamas's military skills and his political government. We will bring all our hostages home, and we guarantee that Gaza never pose a threat to Israel.”

Rubio, speaking before the press from Netanyahu on Sunday, admitted that Mr. Trump Offer to turn the gas strip The “Riviera of the Middle East” may have shocked and surprised “.
“The president was also very bold in his view of what the future of gas should be, not the same tired ideas of the past, but what boldly and what, frankly, needed courage and vision,” he said.
Their comments occurred just two weeks before the first stage of the shaky ceasefire between Israel and gas to end. The second phaseIn which Hamas should release dozens of other hostages in exchange for more Palestinian prisoners, a long truce and abolition of Israeli forces, have not yet agreed.
Rubio said Hamas “cannot continue as a military or government force.”
“As long as it acts as a force that can manage either as a force that can govern or as a force that may threaten the use of violence, peace becomes impossible,” Rubio said. “This needs to be eliminated.”
The secretary on this trip should not meet with any Palestinians. Also, he will not visit Egypt or Jordan, close us to US allies with Israel, who refused to accept any influx of Palestinian refugees.
The restoration of war can be the death sentence For the rest of the hostages and may not be able to destroy Hamas, who survived the 15-month Israeli press and quickly resumed control over the gas when the fire occurred last month.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military stated that on Sunday they had air strikes on people who approached their forces in South Gaza. The Hamas Ministry of Internal Affairs said the strike killed three of its police officers when they provided access to Egyptian trucks near Rafa.
Hamas called the attack a “serious violation” of ceasefire and accused Netanyahu of trying to sabotage the deal.
Israel launched a 15-month war against Hamas in Gaza in response to a terrorist attack on October 7, which killed about 1,200 people in southern Israel and took 251 people. More than 48,000 people were killed in the gas, the Palestinian Ministry of Health of the Palestinian territory reports.
Resist the threat from Iran
Netanyahu said that he and Rubio also held a “very productive discussion” on a number of other issues, “no more important than Iran.”
He said Israel and the US “shoulder to shoulder, withstand Iran's threat.”
“We agreed that Ayatollah should not have nuclear weapons and agreed that Iran's aggression in the region should be unscrewed,” he said.
Rubio said: “For every terrorist group, every act of violence, for every destabilization activity, behind all that threatens peace and stability for millions of people who call this region home, Iran is.”
Israel-Iran's hostility has been going on for decades. Iran supported groups in the Middle East, which describe themselves as “resistance axes” to Israel and the United States.
Ever since the gas war broke out, Israel has fought with several battles, including Iran Hezbollah. Israel killed the leading leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah, and he exchanged limited attacks with Iran.
Netanyahu said that Israel had struck a “powerful blow” with Iran since the beginning of the war and said with the support of Mr. Trump: “I have no doubt that we can finish work.”
