Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that Israel was focusing on disarming Hamas and demilitarizing Gaza after the return of the last hostage from the Palestinian territory a day earlier.

“Now we are focused on completing the two remaining tasks: disarming Hamas and demilitarizing Gaza of weapons and tunnels,” Netanyahu said during a televised press conference.

The US-sponsored ceasefire plan, in effect since October 10, demands the Palestinian Islamist movement’s disarmament under the second phase of the agreement. (AFP)
