Benjamin Netanyahu warned this Wednesday that “every member of Hamas is a dead man,” announcing an emergency government with opposition leader and former Defense Minister Benny Gantz, while the war with the Palestinian terrorist group lasts.

“We put aside any other consideration for the citizens of Israel,” said the prime minister, on the fifth day of war with the Palestinian militias in Gaza, during a joint message with Gantz and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. And he added: “Hamas is Daesh (Islamic State group) and we will crush and destroy them as the world has destroyed Daesh.”

“We are going to completely destroy and kill Hamas, the ISIS of Gaza. They will disappear from the Earth, they will no longer exist, we will not accept that Israeli children and babies are murdered and everything continues as usual,” said the Minister of Defense, assuring that the Israeli areas surrounding the Strip have been secured and now its troops “They focus on the offense.”

For his part, Ganzt commented that “the State of Israel is facing one of its most difficult moments,” with its “families who have been murdered and kidnapped by a merciless enemy that must be eliminated.”

“The fact that we are here united, side by side, is a very clear message to the enemy, and even more importantly, it is a message to all the citizens of Israel,” he added.

Netanyahu earlier reported on the formation of an emergency government with Gantz to deal with the war with Hamas terrorists.

The agreement indicates that Gantz, along with former Justice Minister Gideon Saar; another former chief of the Army General Staff, Gadi Eisenkot, and two other deputies will join the political and security cabinet of the Government for the duration of the war. The five are members of the center-right National Unity party, led by Gantz.

The war management cabinet will be made up of Netanyahu, Gantz and current Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

In addition, a place in the war management cabinet will be reserved for Yair Lapid, who along with Gantz are the two strongest members of the opposition to Netanyahu’s coalition in Parliament.

Negotiations for Lapid’s inclusion have not yet been concluded and local media explain that this is due to disagreements with Netanyahu’s far-right coalition partners.

Finally, the agreement establishes that, while the war lasts, bills cannot be promoted or government decisions made that are not linked to the conflict with the militias.

This is how Hamas terrorists broke into a house in Israel

The war, which began on Saturday with a bloody surprise attack by the Islamist movement Hamas, today marks its fifth day of fighting and has already left more than 1,200 dead in Israel and at least 1,100 in the Gaza Strip.

Gantz was already Netanyahu’s government partner in the past, but his internal disputes and Netanyahu’s refusal to comply with the rotation agreement between the two brought down the coalition.

Since then, Gantz has remained on the opposite side of the current president and has refused on multiple occasions to join his Government.

In the midst of the controversy caused by the judicial reform promoted by the Netanyahu government, Gantz has established himself as the political figure who garners the most popular support in almost all surveys.
