Peres: Israel aims to sever bond between Iran, Gaza

President Shimon Peres met Monday with French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

"(Israel does not want Iran to reach Gaza and we mean to sever their bond," Peres told his French colleague. "We cannot allow terror to raise its head. We do not intend to stay in Gaza, but we do not want to leave it to Hamas; control." (Aviad Glickman)
