Benjamin Netanyahu: We are increasing military pressure on Hamas
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced today that Israel will increase military pressure on Hamas to ensure the release of hostages.
Mr. Netanyahu said in a video message on the eve of the Jewish Passover holiday that in the coming days, we will increase our political and military pressures on Hamas because this is the only way to ensure the freedom of our hostages. He did not provide further details on this.
Despite international protests, Mr. Netanyahu has repeatedly stated that the Israeli army will launch a ground attack on the city of Rafah in southern Gaza. Since Israel’s invasion of Gaza, over 15 million Palestinians have sought refuge in Rafah.
