Israel vows to take 'security responsibility' of Gaza after war

JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed Monday that Israel will take control of"overall security" of besieged Gaza after the war, as the Hamas-run health ministry said the death toll has surged past 10,000.Palestinians stand above debris after Israeli bombardment in Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip on Nov 7, 2023, amid continuing battles between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas.

More than 1.5 million people in densely packed Gaza have fled their homes for other parts of the territory in a desperate search for cover, with critical aid only trickling in. The Israeli army said it had pounded Gaza with"significant" strikes on 450 targets over 24 hours since Sunday morning, and that troops were targeting Hamas commanders in underground tunnels.

"You don't know if you can come back alive," said the soldier, whose name like those of other troops cannot be published because of Israeli military censorship. But Hamas said they would never accept a puppet government in Gaza and that"no force on Earth could annihilate" it, said senior Hamas official in Lebanon, Osama Hamdan.

The Pentagon said Monday a US nuclear-powered Ohio-class submarine was in the Middle East to help prevent war from widening. "We have already taken 40 bodies out of the rubble," he said as crowds prayed around corpses wrapped in white shrouds.
