Israeli Defense Minister: War on Hamas Will Last More than Several Months
(AP) Julia Frankel - Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said it will take months to destroy Hamas, as U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan met with Israeli leaders to discuss a timetable for winding down major combat in Gaza. Israeli leaders repeated their determination to pursue the military assault until they crush Hamas for its Oct. 7 attack. Gallant said Hamas has been building military infrastructure in Gaza for more than a decade, "and it is not easy to destroy them. It will require a period of time. It will last more than several months, but we will win, and we will destroy them."
