Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that the country’s military intends to establish full control over the entire Gaza Strip. His remarks came as Israeli forces intensified their ground operations in the enclave, expanding their offensive amid ongoing conflict.
Netanyahu made the comments in a recorded message shared on his official Telegram account on Monday. He described the situation on the ground as involving heavy combat and affirmed that Israeli troops were advancing in their objectives. He emphasized that continued military action was necessary and framed the operation as one that must proceed without interruption in order to meet its goals.
Expansion of Military Operations in Gaza
The statement aligns with recent developments in the region, where Israeli forces have escalated their presence and operations within Gaza. Ground forces have been pushing deeper into densely populated areas as part of what military officials describe as a broadening campaign aimed at dismantling hostile networks and eliminating threats.
Netanyahu’s message reinforced his government’s stance that the military campaign will continue until complete territorial control is achieved. The government has consistently argued that long-term security can only be ensured by neutralizing armed groups and regaining full authority over the Strip.
International observers continue to monitor the situation closely, as the military escalation raises concerns about humanitarian conditions and the broader implications for regional stability. Further updates are expected as Israeli forces press forward with the ongoing operation.
