Netanyahu: “Hamas deceives the world but we will eliminate them”
There are still two pockets of Hamas in Israeli-controlled territory in Gaza, but they will be eliminated. This was reported by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the beginning of the weekly cabinet meeting, writes the Times of Israel.
Armed militiamen are still hiding in Rafah and Khan Younis. “They will be eliminated,” he promised.
Hamas’ “attempts to deceive us, the United States and the world” are pathetic, he added. But “they won’t succeed and little by little we will bring all our hostages home”, he assured.
