Israeli prime minister Netanyahu declares it is ‘time for war’ as he rules out ceasefire in Gaza
Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has declared it ‘time for war’ as he declines proposals of a Gaza ceasefire.
Netanyahu was joined by a military spokesperson in a press conference, who suggested operations in Gaza had ‘expanded’, but declined to give details.
“The Bible says that there is a time for peace and a time for war. This is a time for war,” the prime minister said, likening the unfolding situation to the US’ 9/11 response.
According to the Israeli government, there have been over 1,400 deaths as a result of attacks by Hamas, including 310 soldiers.
