During a visit to the Zikim IDF training base near Gaza, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeats that Israeli forces will reach every Hamas operative in every corner of the Gaza Strip.
“Do you remember when they said we wouldn’t invade Gaza? We invaded. They said we wouldn’t get to the outskirts of Gaza City, we did. They said we wouldn’t go into Shifa [Hospital], we went in,” Netanyahu says in a video statement released by his office.
“There is no place in Gaza that we won’t reach. There is no hideout, no shelter, no refuge for the Hamas murderers,” he says. “We will get there and we will take out Hamas and we will bring home our hostages — those are our two holy missions.”
Netanyahu says he spoke last night again with US President Joe Biden, and “we are not giving up, we will destory Hamas and achieve a complete victory.”
