Part 3/7:
Parallel to the military developments in Syria, Netanyahu emphasized that Israel will not cease its military operations in Gaza. He insists that an immediate end to hostilities would lead to a resurgence of Hamas, stating that his government’s ultimate goal is to annihilate the group to prevent future attacks. This statement comes amid renewed talks of a potential ceasefire and negotiation efforts fueled by the recent electoral victory of Donald Trump in the U.S.
As renewed efforts to address the hostage crisis continue, Netanyahu met with families of Israeli captives, hinting at possible diplomatic openings, while concurrently facing legal challenges related to corruption charges.
