Rubio Pushes Back Against Netanyahu's 70 Percent Gaza Seizure Plan
Addressing lawmakers at a congressional hearing, Rubio was direct: "We have a plan -- it doesn't call for that."
Rubio elaborated on Washington's long-term vision for the battered territory, stating: "And at the end of the day, we understand that what we want, and I think what the Israelis would ultimately want, is a Gaza that is governed by a non-Hamas (entity)."
On Thursday, Netanyahu revealed he had issued a formal directive ordering the Israeli military to extend its control across the Gaza Strip, scaling its foothold from 60 percent to 70 percent of the territory.
