Netanyahu: Israel Must Continue Its Offensive in Gaza to Free More Hostages

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said today, Monday, that Israel will not waste any opportunity to free more hostages in Gaza, describing the ongoing military pressure until achieving "complete victory" over Hamas as necessary to fully recover the hostages. Netanyahu's statement came after Israeli special forces rescued two hostages in an operation in the city of Rafah, located on the border of the Gaza Strip with Egypt, which is crowded with civilians fleeing the war, raising concerns in Cairo and Washington about the possibility of broader operations there.
