Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, dismissed international pressure to halt the Israeli military's ground operation in Gaza aimed at eradicating Hamas.


On the 10th (local time), local media including the daily Times of Israel reported that during the weekly cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Netanyahu said, "I spoke with the leaders of France and Germany last weekend," adding, "It is contradictory to support the removal of Hamas while simultaneously pressuring to stop the war."


He continued, "The fight in Gaza will continue with full force," and stated, "Justice is on our side."


Netanyahu also expressed gratitude to the U.S. administration under Joe Biden for vetoing the ceasefire resolution at the United Nations Security Council on the 8th and for providing over 14,000 artillery shells.
