Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits a detention facility in southern Israel where Hamas operatives detained in the Gaza Strip are being questioned by the IDF’s 504 human intelligence unit.

According to the Prime Minister’s Office, Netanyahu gets a briefing about the unit’s work and the interrogation procedures.

He then tells the unit’s soldiers that “we are continuing until the end, until victory, until the elimination of Hamas” — even in the face of international pressure. “Nothing will stop us,” he says.

He expresses appreciation for the military’s work in Gaza, adding that “yesterday we had a very tough day” when 10 soldiers were killed in a Hamas ambush in the Strip’s north.
