Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Wednesday evening that IDF forces have surrounded the home of Hamas leader in Gaza Yahya Sinwar.
"I said last night that our forces could reach anywhere in the Gaza Strip. Now, they are encircling Sinwar's home. His home is not his fortress, and while he may flee, it is only a matter of time until we get him,” Netanyahu said in a video statement.
“We are applying pressure to enable Red Cross visits to our captives. Consequently, I have again spoken today with the president of the Red Cross, urging her to approach Qatar, which has shown influence over Hamas, to demand Red Cross visits to our captives and ensure they receive necessary medications."
