Netanyahu: We may have succeeded in assassinating Mohammed Al-Sinwar
He also claimed that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) had achieved many targets and that his government has a program to achieve more.
Netanyahu said that the IOF delivered "strong strikes" against the Houthis, claiming that Tel Aviv "has not said its last word yet" on this issue.
He added in press statements that his government continues to work to prevent Iran from enriching uranium, stressing that Tel Aviv "maintains its right to defend itself."
Regarding the military escalation in the Gaza Strip, Netanyahu claimed that the IOF continues to carry out violent strikes against Hamas, adding that he directed, along with the defense minister, to carry out "more and stronger strikes."
He claimed that all areas of the Gaza Strip would be within safe zones under his forces' control.
Netanyahu pointed out that "Tel Aviv's friends support it but are cautious about the occurrence of famine or a humanitarian crisis in Gaza," announcing his government's intention to allow humanitarian aid in the first phase "to avoid a humanitarian crisis."
Regarding ceasefire negotiations, Netanyahu said he is ready to end the war in Gaza, but only "under conditions that guarantee Tel Aviv's security and that Hamas does not remain in power in Gaza," while at the same time claiming his readiness for a "temporary ceasefire in exchange for the return of the hostages."
Netanyahu added, "We will not stop the war and do not want to harm our hostages," pledging to continue military and political pressure and affirming that "force is necessary to bring back the hostages."
Separately, the Portuguese Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the summoning of the "Israeli" ambassador in protest against the IOF's assault on diplomats and journalists in the city of Jenin in the West Bank.
Netanyahu also stressed that appointing or dismissing the head of the Shin Bet is solely "the prime minister's jurisdiction," asserting that his government "has changed the face of the Middle East, limited Hezbollah's capabilities, toppled Assad's regime, and shattered the axis of evil led by Iran," according to his words.
