Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with soldiers on the front lines Saturday afternoon, alluding to a second wave of conflict on the horizon.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting with Israeli soldiers on the front lines ahead of expected ground invasions. The prime minister posted a video of himself speaking with Israeli Defense Force members, alluding to coming combat. 'With our fighters in the Gaza Strip, on the front line. We are all ready,' Netanyahu wrote on social media.
In a video shared in the post, Netanyahu asks troops, 'Are you ready for the next stage?' 'The next stage is coming,' he says, without stating what the next stage of Israel's conflict with Hamas is. Israel has called up some 360,000 troops and amassed forces on the border with Gaza ahead of an anticipated ground assault to annihilate Hamas' capabilities.
How horrific it is, how painful it is,' he said. The prime minister said that every person in Israel knows someone who lost their lives in the attacks on Saturday. Netanyahu, former Prime Minister Yair Lapid and former Defense Minister Benny Gantz formed an emergency unity government days after the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust was carried out by Hamas terrorists.
