British Foreign Secretary David Cameron , who previously served as the country's prime minister, visited Kibbutz Be'eri with his Israeli counterpart Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, who thanked him for his support and firm stance on behalf of Israel since the beginning of the war with Hamas in Gaza.
"World leaders need to see the atrocities of Hamas with their own eyes, and understand that Israel is fighting a terrorist organization worse than ISIS," Cohen said, adding: "Even after the temporary truce for the release of women and children kidnapped to Gaza, Israel will continue fighting until the goals are achieved: the destruction of Hamas rule in the Gaza Strip and the release of each and every one of the hostages.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Sunday that Hezbollah was seeking to rearm and that Israel would exercise its right to self-defence under last year's ceasefire accord if Lebanon failed to disarm the militant group.
The partial remains of three bodies in Gaza handed over to Israel overnight did not belong to any of the hostages held in the Palestinian territory, Israeli media reported on Saturday.
Foreign ministers from several Muslim-majority countries will convene in Istanbul on Monday to discuss the current Gaza ceasefire and potential next steps, including the establishment of a "stability force," Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan announced on Friday during a press conference in Ankara.
