Israeli Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz says the Tel Aviv regime has no plan to stop the ongoing aerial and ground military operations in besieged Gaza Strip.
The senior official says Israeli forces will reoccupy the besieged coastal enclave despite the international outcry to end the bloodshed there.
"There is a significant likelihood that the current ground operation will end with Israel retaking full control over Gaza," media outlets quoted Steinitz as saying.
Steinitz's remarks come after the Israeli diplomatic-security cabinet unanimously approved an expansion of ground invasion in the impoverished region.
He claimed the decision has been made on the assessment that Hamas is not ready for a ceasefire.
The Israeli minister added that Tel Aviv is in no rush to bring to an end to the current offensive against the besieged region.
Earlier, Israeli War Minister Moshe Ya'alon had said Tel Aviv will press ahead with Operation Protective Edge and respond to Hamas operations as harshly as possible.
This is while an Arab member of the Israeli Knesset says Tel Aviv will not be able to continue its war on Gaza for a long period.
Haneen Zoabi said the Israeli public is in favor of a short war in Gaza, because people there do not want the war to disrupt their ordinary lives.
According to Zoabi, Israelis cannot tolerate living in shelters for long. She added that Israelis are arrogant and believe that their military forces can easily finish the war, so they do not want the conflict to spoil their summer vacations and foreign travels.
More than 410 Gazans are killed and around 3000 others injured in Israel’s unrelenting aerial and ground attacks on the blockaded region. Senior Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar has called for an international probe into Israel's massacres of Palestinians in Gaza.
