‘Israel gave up on demilitarization of Strip’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAshraf al-Ajrami, the former Palestinian Authority Minister of Prisoners, says the Israeli delegation has given up on its demands to demilitarize the Gaza Strip. According to Ajrami, Israel instead agreed to the installation of an international task force charged with preventing arms from reaching the Strip.
“It is estimated that Israel’s demand may not be realized,” he says during an interview with Army Radio.
“The Israeli side will soon be satisfied with a Hamas that has limited access to arms, and that’s what will end up being the result of the talks in Cairo,” he concludes.
