Israel on way to total victory – Prime Minister
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a video statement says Israel has killed Hamas’s “number four,” apparently referring to the terror group’s deputy political leader Saleh al-Arouri, while vowing that the military will soon reach the other top commanders.
The remarks come as Israel is investigating the fate of Hamas’s number three, Marwan Issa, the deputy head of the terror group’s military wing, who was reportedly targeted in an airstrike on March 10, The Times of Israel reports.
“We are on the way to total victory. On the way to this victory, we already eliminated number four in Hamas. Three, two, and one are on the way,” Netanyahu says.
“They are all dead men, we will reach them all,” he adds.
Al-Arouri was killed in an airstrike on Beirut in early January, although Israel never officially took responsibility for the attack.
