Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has sharply criticized HAMAS, stating that the terrorist organization is unwilling to compromise on the release of hostages. Following the release of a video showing severely suffering hostages in the Gaza Strip, Netanyahu expressed his readiness to eliminate HAMAS. He emphasized that the terrorist organization is merely inciting panic among Israelis and using propaganda as a means of influence.
The Prime Minister also expressed condolences to the families of the hostages and compared HAMAS's actions to the practices of the Nazis, who used starvation to torture hostages during the Holocaust. Netanyahu remains confident in his intentions to free the captives and destroy HAMAS, as well as to ensure Israel's security from aggression coming from the Gaza Strip.
«But we will not give up. I am even more determined to free our captured sons, to destroy HAMAS, and to ensure that Gaza never threatens Israel again,» Netanyahu summarized.
Netanyahu highlighted the seriousness of the situation and confirmed his readiness to take all necessary measures to protect his citizens and ensure the safety of the country from terrorist threats.
