The Arab League Secretariat General called on Monday the international community to take action to end the Israeli occupation and its assault on Gaza, as well as to stop attacks on holy sites, carried out with the aim of Judaizing Jerusalem.

In a statement issued in Cairo on the occasion of Land Day, the league expressed its support for the Palestinian people's noble goal of establishing its independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.

It also commended the Palestinian people’s steadfastness and sacrifices of its martyrs, the injured and the prisoners, toward establishing their own state and denounced the policies of the Israeli authorities against Palestinians.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that Hamas would not rule Gaza after the war ended and that Israel has destroyed Hamas' military force.

Speaking from within Gaza itself during a visit, Netanyahu also said Israel had not given up on locating the remaining hostages in Gaza.

"Anyone who dares to harm our hostages will have blood on their head. We will hunt you down and get you," he said.
