Israel Kats said that civilians “evacuate the war zones” and called on the Gaza population to contribute to the overthrow of Hamas and the release of hostages.

“This is the only way to end war“He said, threatening” even more severe battles throughout the Gaza Strip “until the hostages are released and Hamas crashes.
