'We don't intend to stay' in Gaza, Israeli FM Sa'ar says

With the first phase of the ceasefire that paused 15 months of war between Israel and Hamas set to end on March 1, FRANCE 24 spoke to Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar. The second phase entails in theory the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza but what comes next remains unclear. "We don't intend to stay there (in Gaza)," Sa'ar said. However, he added: "We have clear objectives. And the objectives are the release of all our hostages, and that [the] Gaza Strip will not threat[en] anymore Israel's security and Israel's citizens."
