On a tour of southern Israel, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant promised to lead Israel to a decisive victory against Hamas. He stated that they would be precise and forceful until their mission is fulfilled. The mission, as echoed throughout Israel's military ranks and political leadership, is to wipe out Hamas and its infrastructure in response to a surprise attack launched by the terrorist group. While some voices around the world question Israel's response and call for restraint, Israelis believe there is no choice but to take action. Eylon Levy, an Israeli government spokesman, argued that demanding a ceasefire would allow Hamas to get away with its actions and retain the ability to do it again. Miri Eisen, a retired IDF colonel, stressed the need to erase every part of Hamas' operation to prevent future attacks. The attack by Hamas led to the destruction of homes and infrastructure in multiple communities, with estimates of over 50,000 internally displaced citizens. The Israeli military has carried out airstrikes and targeted top-ranking leaders of Hamas and other terror groups. However, with Hamas' infrastructure buried beneath residential areas, civilian deaths are unavoidable. As the death toll rises and the humanitarian situation worsens, tensions in the region are escalating. Lt. Col. (res) Shaul Bartal noted an increase in meetings between senior Hamas leaders and Iranian officials, suggesting Iran's involvement in the conflict. Bartal also highlighted Hamas' antisemitic ideology and the need to topple the organization for lasting security and peace in the region.
