Israel to deal heavy blow to its enemies, says PM Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the front line and met with soldiers of the elite Golani infantry brigade deployed near the border with the Gaza Strip, the Times of Israel reported. "We are going to win with all our might. All of Israel is behind you, and we are going to heavily strike our enemies so that we can achieve victory," Netanyahu told a group of soldiers.

According to the newspaper, senior Israeli officials have paid a series of visits to the servicemen of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) stationed near the Gaza Strip in recent days, warning them of the inevitability of a large-scale ground operation to eradicate the Hamas terrorist group and predicting that the fighting will be difficult and long, but ultimately victorious.

Israeli army spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Richard Hecht said earlier that the military has not yet made a final decision on a ground operation in Gaza. The spokesman pointed out that Israel is capable of withstanding a two-front war.
