Netanyahu said the operation against Hamas could be completed in a couple of months. American leader Joe Biden noted that Netanyahu is obliged to pay more attention to the safety of the civilian population of the Gaza Strip, which is dying due to the fighting.
Prior to this, Netanyahu announced his intention to expand the combat zone in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. The Israeli Prime Minister said it will take no more than two months, maybe six weeks, maybe four, to complete the operation. He said that three quarters of the Hamas terrorist combat battalions have been destroyed.
