Tel Aviv, May 2: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened to attack Gaza. Netanyahu threatened to launch an operation against Hamas in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, regardless of a ceasefire and the release of prisoners. In a statement on Tuesday, the Prime Minister of Israel said: “They will attack Rafah in Gaza with or without a deal with Hamas.”
According to the report of the international press, after the meeting with the security forces on Tuesday, Netanyahu clearly said: “We will not stop the war until all the goals are achieved.” There is no need to even consider a cessation of hostilities. To achieve a complete victory we will enter Rafah and eliminate the Hamas battalions there. Agreement or not.
Netanyahu threatened the death of Israeli citizens in Hamas attacks. In a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office, it was stated that the bereaved Israelis asked Netanyahu not to stop the war. Meanwhile, a cease-fire agreement between Hamas and Israel was created after Netanyahu’s threat. It is considered that this will no longer be possible.
By the way, talks have begun in Egypt about the Israel-Palestine ceasefire. Hamas sent a cease-fire proposal to Israel on April 13. Hamas agreed to release 33 Israeli prisoners as part of the offer. It should be noted that since the Israeli-Palestinian war, hundreds of Israeli citizens are still imprisoned by Hamas. Israel wants a temporary ceasefire for a few days in exchange for the release of prisoners. Meanwhile, Hamas demands an end to all types of torture and killing of Palestinians.
