"It is a solution for two States living in peace side by side, with mutual recognition and security guarantees. This is the only way to achieve lasting peace and stability in the region," he noted.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned earlier Friday that Israel will annex territories in the Gaza Strip if Hamas refuses to release the remaining hostages.

Israel resumed strikes in Gaza on Tuesday after its ceasefire deal with Hamas that began on Jan. 19 unraveled. Israeli troops later launched ground operations in southern, northern, and central Gaza.
