Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel will increase “military pressure” on Hamas to secure the release of hostages held in Gaza. Netanyahu stated that they will intensify both military and political pressure on Hamas in the coming days. Despite international concern, Netanyahu has indicated the possibility of a ground assault on Rafah in southern Gaza where some hostages are believed to be held. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari mentioned that the chief of staff has approved the next steps for the war, but did not provide specifics. It has been 200 days since the hostages were abducted, and Israel vows to continue the fight until they are returned home.
