Greater Noida (World Desk): Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday said that Israel has decided to stop letting goods and supplies into Gaza, something they have done for the past 42 days. They have done that because Hamas steals the supplies and prevents the people of Gaza from getting them. They use these supplies to finance its terror machine, which is aimed directly at Israel and our civilians – and this we cannot accept.
Releasing a video on social media website X, Benjamin Netanyahu further said that they will take further steps if Hamas continues to hold their hostages. And throughout this, Israel knows that America and President Trump have their back.
Netanyahu also thanked US President Donald Trump for his unwavering support for Israel and recalled his visit to Washington. He said, “during my recent visit to Washington, I said that Donald Trump is the greatest friend that Israel has ever had in the White House. And President Trump shows that friendship each and every day. He has shown it through his visionary plan for Gaza, this is a plan which Israel fully supports.”
“He’s shown it by sending us all the munitions that were being held up. This way he is giving Israel the tools we need to finish the job against Iran’s terror axis. And he has shown it by fully backing Israel and putting the pressure to release the hostages where it truly belongs – on Hamas. Israel has accepted President Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff’s plan to extend the temporary ceasefire by 50 days, during that time we can discuss the conditions for a permanent ceasefire that will end the war in Gaza. In Witkoff’s plan, half of the hostages would be released right away and the remaining half would be released if we reach an agreement on a permanent ceasefire. Again, Israel has accepted this plan. I accepted this plan. But so far, Hamas has rejected it. Hamas had also put forward positions for a permanent ceasefire that are totally unacceptable,” he added.
I want to thank @POTUS @realDonaldTrump for his unwavering support for Israel.
