The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have made a commitment to target and eliminate Hamas terror leader Yahiya Sinwar, according to Israel Defence Minister Yoav Gallant. Gallant, a retired General of the Israeli army, made this declaration during a briefing on Saturday evening.
At the moment, the IDF has surrounded Gaza City and is on the brink of entering the Gaza City Center. Gallant assured the media that after the conflict, there would be no presence of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, and Israeli citizens would no longer face threats from the Gaza Strip.
"After the war, there won’t be any Hamas in Gaza Strip. There won't be any threat to Israeli citizens from the Gaza Strip again," he said.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed confidence in a decisive and clear victory for the Israeli army. He emphasized the determination to continue until Hamas is entirely eliminated, hostages are returned, and peace is established in the region.
The IDF has reported the elimination of ten Hamas leaders, including various battalion commanders. Among those targeted were Mustafa Dalul, the commander of Hamas' Sabra Tel Al-Hawa battalion, who was assassinated on Friday. Additionally, Hamas' aerial chief, Abu Rubekh, and its Naval commander, Abu Sahinaba, were also eliminated by the IDF.
The Israeli government's stance is firm in its pursuit of eradicating the threat posed by Hamas and achieving peace and security in the region.
