Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a video message on Thursday, asserting Israel's determination to defeat Hamas, even if it means standing alone. This statement came after President Biden's threat to withhold weapon shipments if Israel proceeds with an invasion of Rafah.
Netanyahu drew parallels to Israel's 1948 war of independence, emphasizing the nation's strength, resolve, and unity in the face of adversity. He reiterated Israel's commitment to overcoming its enemies and protecting its people.
