Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said his country enjoys US support for its goals of destroying Hamas and recovering hostages held by the group but the allies differ about what might follow the Gaza military campaign, AFP reports.
Reiterating his past refusal to countenance a return to Gaza rule of the Palestinian Authority under President Mahmoud Abbas, Netanyahu said in a statement that Gaza “will be neither Hamas-stan nor ‘Fatah-stan’”.
Fatah is Abbas’s faction.
