Israeli army chief Lieutenant-General, Gabi Ashkenazi, stated: "The next round (of fighting) will be extensive and it should end in such a way where there is no doubt as to which side triumphed." Ynet News quoted Ashkenazi on Wednesday as he was addressing Israeli troops based near the Gaza strip.
The Lieutenant-General also pointed out the Israeli military' is ready for a wider action against the coastal enclave.
Ashkenazi's remarks come only days after Israeli airstrikes were carried out in different locations across Gaza.
Israel launched an all-out military offensive on Gaza in late December 2008 killing over 1,400 Palestinians, most of whom women and children.
The coastal strip has been under the Israeli-imposed blockade since June 2007, after Hamas took control of the region following democratic elections, making a disastrous impact on the humanitarian and economic situation inside the enclave.
