Netanyahu says cease-fire in Gaza would be 'surrender to Hamas' | DW News

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that a cease-fire in the Gaza war "will not happen" as it would be "to surrender to Hamas."

DW spoke to Israel Defense Forces spokesman Jonathan Conricus regarding current Israeli military actions in Gaza.

When asked about the possibility of a "humanitarian pause" in Gaza, Conricus said it is in the IDF's interest "to make the best situation possible for civilians" in Gaza.

"They are not our enemy," Conricus said of Gaza civilians, while discussing efforts by the US, Egypt and Israel to facilitate aid to Gaza.

At the same time, Conricus rejected the idea of a cease-fire in Gaza, as Netanyahu said earlier.
