Israeli Defense Minister: “I tell our friends and enemies that we will achieve objectives”

The Minister of Defense IsraeliYoav Gallant, reminded the “friends and enemies of Israel” that he will not stop until “he achieves all his objectives” in the Gaza Stripin reference to the threat that US President Joe Biden launched for the first time yesterday to stop supplying weapons to the Jewish State if they finally launch a large-scale operation against the southern city of Rafah.

“The State of Israel cannot be subjugated, nor the Army, nor the defense system. We will stand firm, we will achieve our goals. We will attack Hamas, we will attack Hezbollah and we will achieve security,” Gallant said at a ceremony commemorating the fallen and victims of Israel’s terrorism.

Gallant insisted that “whatever the cost” they will guarantee the existence of the State of Israel and that they will “eliminate” all the threats against which he says “they are trying to destroy them.”

“We have no other option, we have no other country. We will do whatever is necessary, and I repeat, whatever is necessary, to defend the citizens of Israel,” she asserted.

In addition, Gallant He reiterated his Government’s commitment to bring back the 128 hostages still in the hands of Hamas, without referring to the truce pact that the relatives ask him to prioritize.

In an interview with CNN, Biden warned that they will stop sending artillery and bombs for fighter planes if Israel launches a large-scale invasion in Rafah, where 1.4 million Gazans live in poverty, the vast majority displaced from the north by Israeli bombings.

This past Tuesday, Israeli tanks occupied the Palestinian part of the Rafah which for the moment has caused this border crossing, crucial for the entry of humanitarian aid and also for the chronically ill and injured who left there daily to be treated outside the enclave, to remain closed.
