Military losses of the Israeli army, which is expanding its land occupation in the Gaza Strip, are increasing day by day.
Prime Minister Netanyahu made evaluations about the latest developments.
In his speech at the weekly government meeting held in Tel Aviv, Netanyahu said, after 14 more Israeli soldiers were killed in Gaza over the weekend, “The war makes us pay a very heavy price, but we have no choice but to continue fighting.” said.
Arguing that the Israeli army “achieved success in a full force attack” on the Gaza Strip, Netanyahu stated that in his phone conversation with US President Joe Biden, “he said that they would continue to fight until victory and the US understood this.”
Netanyahu claimed that the news that the USA “blocked or will block the operation steps do not reflect the truth” and used the following statements:
“Israel is an independent state. Our decisions in war and operations are made according to calculations, I will not go into details. These cannot be dictated by external pressure. How we will use our forces is an independent decision, it belongs to the army, not anyone else.”
Netanyahu said their goal is to “destroy Hamas, bring back the hostages, and ensure that Israeli citizens live in safety in the south and north.”
It was announced that 14 Israeli soldiers were killed in the last 24 hours in the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli army is trying to expand its land occupation.
