Netanyahu Vows: “There Will Be No More Hamas – We Will Eliminate Them Completely”

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu toured the EAPC energy facilities in Ashkelon today, promising a full eradication of Hamas while highlighting Israel's future economic gains from natural gas revenues—estimated at nearly NIS 300 billion over the next decade.

Netanyahu at the visit

During a visit to the Eilat-Ashkelon Pipeline Company (EAPC) installations in Ashkelon on Wednesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a forceful statement on Israel’s war goals and economic ambitions. Accompanied by Energy Minister Eli Cohen, Minister Dudi Amsalem, and Ashkelon Mayor Tomer Glam, Netanyahu received a comprehensive briefing from EAPC CEO Amit Shaked.

He praised Israel’s energy sector for its performance during Operation "Rising Lion" and emphasized the country's growing energy capabilities:

“We are going to expand and strengthen Israel’s energy potential. We have enormous capabilities.”

Netanyahu outlined the financial significance of Israel’s gas resources:

“The projected revenue from natural gas alone over the next decade is close to NIS 300 billion. There were critics who claimed it would destroy Israel’s economy. It didn’t. It’s building Israel’s economy.”

“We Will Eliminate Hamas to the Root”

In a bold and uncompromising tone, Netanyahu reiterated Israel’s military objective:

“I’m telling you: there will be no more Hamas. No more Hamastan. We’re not going back. It’s over. We will release all our hostages. Some say these are conflicting goals – nonsense. We will achieve both. We will eliminate them down to the root.”

Strategic Vision: Linking East and West

Netanyahu also spoke of Israel’s strategic role in connecting energy resources from the Middle East to the West:

“Our opportunities are enormous. We’re not going to miss them. One power is fading—another is rising. That rising power is the State of Israel. We will link Asia, the Middle East, and the Arabian Peninsula to the West through energy.”

He concluded with praise for the workers of the Israeli energy sector:

“You’ve delivered energy to every home, every factory, and every piece of infrastructure in Israel. When there was damage—you responded. You repaired. And we kept going, together. We’ll keep going together. We’ll succeed together.”
