During a meeting with local community heads at the Israel Defense Forces Southern Command base in Beersheva, Netanyahu said, "We are determined to rehabilitate the settlements and kibbutzim in what is called 'the Gaza Envelope,' to return the residents to their homes and to bring about prosperity and prosperity far beyond what existed even before the war."
To achieve this, he continued, "We need to achieve a victory over Hamas first, but also to take the necessary civilian actions, and for this reason we convened the War Cabinet together with the ministerial team today."
Netanyahu made his remarks as Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday launched over 50 rockets into southern Israel.
Attending the meeting were Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, ministers Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot, Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer and Knesset member Aryeh Deri, among other ministers.
