Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir Urges Full Resumption of Gaza Fighting

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir on Monday urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to order a full resumption of combat operations in the Gaza Strip “with maximum force,” responding to what he described as recent violations of the ceasefire by Hamas. In a statement and social-media posts, Ben‑Gvir said any belief that “Hamas will change its stripes, or even uphold the deal it signed, has, as expected, proved dangerous to our security.” He added bluntly: “This Nazi terror organization must be destroyed completely — and the sooner the better.” Ben‑Gvir called for an immediate, forceful response to the alleged breaches of the truce and for a clear red line to be drawn against Hamas. Israeli government and security officials are expected to convene emergency discussions in the coming hours to consider political and military options.
