Netanyahu disciplines Israeli minister who voiced openness to hypothetical nuclear option in Gaza

IndiaTimes Sunday, 5 November 2023
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has suspended Heritage Minister Amihay Eliyahu after he appeared to suggest that Israel could carry out a nuclear strike on Gaza. Eliyahu's comments caused outrage and made headlines in Arab media. Netanyahu's office stated that Eliyahu's remarks were not based in reality and that Israel is operating in accordance with international law. Eliyahu later claimed that his nuclear remark was metaphorical and called for a strong response to terrorism. Hamas condemned Eliyahu's comments as representing Israeli terrorism.
