Prime Minister Netanyahu: 'The notion that Israel will agree to a permanent ceasefire before these conditions are fulfilled is a non-starter.'
Prime Minister Netanyahu: “The notion that Israel will agree to a permanent ceasefire before these conditions are fulfilled is a non-starter.” Israel i Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears to have rebuffed President Joe Biden’s ceasefire offer to end the military operation against the terror group Hamas in Rafah. Biden presented it in his televised speech Friday as a new Israel i proposal, but it’s clear that was not true.
Israeli prime minister’s office on Saturday morning issued a statement, clarifying that there was no new Israeli ceasefire deal on the table. Israel wants to see the release of all hostage and the destruction of Hamas as a terrorist fighting force in Gaza. His comments, in a rare statement published on the Sabbath and only in English, came after United States President Joe Biden announced that Israel had proposed a three-phase deal for a ceasefire in Gaza in exchange for Hamas releasing hostages.
Netanyahu’s comments, the second statement issued by his office since Biden’s speech, appeared aimed at framing the type of truce Israel would initially agree to, not ruling one out.Israel's conditions for ending the war have not changed: The destruction of Hamas military and governing capabilities, the freeing of all hostages and ensuring that Gaza no longer poses a threat to Israel.
