✅ We succeeded politically in allowing our forces to fight in an unprecedented way for a full 5 months

✅ It is no secret to anyone that international pressure is increasing on us

✅ There are international parties trying to stop the war now before all of its goals are achieved by making false accusations against the army and the prime minister

✅ There are international parties seeking to hold elections now in Israel because they know that the elections will stop the war and paralyze the country for at least 6 months

✅ If we stop the war now, this means that Israel has lost, and we will not allow that and we will not surrender to these pressures

✅ No amount of international pressure will prevent us from achieving the war goals of eliminating Hamas, freeing the kidnapped, and making Gaza no longer a threat.

✅ We will work in Rafah. This is the only way to eliminate the rest of the Hamas brigades and to exert the necessary military pressure to release the kidnapped people.

✅ We approved the executive plans for work in Rafah, including strengthening the steps to evacuate civilians from combat areas

✅ I say to our friends in the international community, have you forgotten October 7 so quickly, and are you prepared to deprive Israel of the right to defend itself?
