TEL AVIV, June 5. /TASS/. Israel is using various methods to defeat Hamas, which rules Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said in a statement.
"Israel is working to defeat Hamas through various means, as recommended by all heads of the security establishment," the statement said.
According to the state broadcaster Kan, the statement came out after former Israeli Defense Minister and currently Knesset member Avigdor Liberman said the Israeli government is arming Palestinian groups in Gaza that oppose Hamas. Earlier on Thursday, Liberman told Kan that Israel is providing weapons to crime groups in Gaza that identify with the Islamic State (banned in Russia).
