Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with representatives of the families of the victims and those whose loved ones are being held captive by Hamas terrorists.
“Maariv” writes about this.
During this meeting, he reiterated that Israel will continue its actions until Hamas is completely destroyed and all its military objectives are achieved.
“We will continue until Hamas is destroyed and the objectives of the war are achieved,” the prime minister said.
Netanyahu made it clear that despite the pressure, Israel will not give up occupying key positions in the Philadelphia Corridor and the Netzarim Axis, calling them important militarily and politically.
The Prime Minister also noted that he was waiting to see whether terrorists Hezbollah and Iran would become more aggressive against Israel.
According to the meeting participants, Netanyahu expressed doubts that a hostage deal could be concluded in the near future, which once again confirms the seriousness of the Israeli leadership’s intentions in the current situation.
Netanyahu stressed that if a deal is reached, his goal will be to preserve Israel’s strategic interests.
According to the prime minister, the demands of the negotiations remain the same, and even if an agreement is reached, Israel will resume hostilities 42 days later until Hamas is completely destroyed. He also made it clear that even during the negotiations, the Israeli army is still planning new measures.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, commenting on the recent operation to return the bodies of the abductees, noted that this is just one of many operations carried out by the Israeli military.
He said he could not reveal all the details, but said that work was constantly underway to expand capabilities in this direction.
