Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to see military action against the Islamist Hamas in the Gaza Strip as the only way to bring the hostages held in the coastal area back to Israel. “Only the continuation of the powerful military pressure that we have exercised and will continue to exercise will bring back our hostages,” Netanyahu said at a meeting with relatives of abducted soldiers, according to his office. “I know that every day that goes by is hell for you.” He doesn’t want to leave any hostage behind.
