Defense Minister Yoav Gallant tells visiting United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken to expect a long but successful campaign against the Hamas terror group.

“Let me tell you, Mr. Secretary, this will be a long war. The price will be high, but we are going to win — for Israel, for the Jewish people, and for the values that both [our] countries believe in,” Gallant tells Blinken, during a press conference at the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv.
