Hamas political leaders fair targets, says general
After Israel kills three senior Hamas military commanders, Gen. Yoav Mordechai, responsible for the government’s activities in the West Bank and Gaza, says on Sky News Arabic that “no one from Hamas’s leadership will enjoy immunity — not at the political level or the military level,” according to Ynet. “All of Hamas’s leadership is in the Shifa Hospital. ”
There will be no negotiations under fire, he adds.
“We have nothing against the people in Gaza. If only Gaza would become Singapore; but Mashaal and Haniyeh want to turn it into Somalia.”
