Israel will not decrease number of troops in Philadelphi Corridor, will increase them during 1st stage of deal, alleges Israeli premier

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday evening that a Gaza ceasefire agreement with Palestinian Hamas, set to take effect Sunday, would be “temporary.”

In a statement, Netanyahu said US President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump gave Israel the full right to resume its attacks if the next stages of the deal with Hamas are not realized.

“Israel will not decrease the number of troops in the Philadelphi Corridor but will increase them during the first stage,” the Israeli prime minister alleged.
