Gaza proposal enables Israel to achieve war goals: Israeli government official

Jerusalem: An Israeli government official said on Tuesday the latest Gaza proposal would allow Israel to achieve all the objectives it needs to meet before it can end the war.

"Israel will not end the war before achieving all its war objectives: destroying Hamas' military and governing capabilities, freeing all the hostages and ensuring Gaza doesn't pose a threat to Israel in the future," said the official who asked not to be identified.

"The proposal presented enables Israel to achieve these goals and Israel will indeed do so."
