| [FoxNews] US envoy traveling to Qatar for talks on a possible ceasefire in Gaza Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday pledged to move against Hamas with "full force" in the coming days to "complete" the fight against the Iran-backed terror group. Netanyahu made the remarks about the war in Gaza while visiting with Israel Defense Forces reservists. "In the coming days, we are going in with full force to complete the operation," Netanyahu said. "Completing the operation means defeating Hamas. It means destroying Hamas." Netanyahu said that eliminating Hamas and freeing the remaining hostages that the group took during its deadly attack on Oct. 7, 2023, "go hand in hand." "It’s possible that Hamas will say, ‘Time out — we want to release ten more [hostages].’ Fine, bring them. We’ll take them, and then we’ll go in," the prime minister said. "But there will not be a situation in which we stop the war. There may be a temporary cease-fire, but we’re going all the way." With Hamas' release of Israeli American hostage Edan Alexander on Monday, there are 58 hostages now being held in Gaza. Netanyahu's remarks came just before Alexander was released. |
