Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said this week that a representative of the International Committee of the Red Cross refused to bring life-saving medications to hostages still trapped inside Gaza.

Netanyahu’s remarks come as Israel has intensified its operations against Hamas, the Islamic terrorist group that murdered 1,200 Israelis on October 7, in recent days as it seeks the return of the remainder of the hostages that Hamas kidnapped.

“I met with the Red Cross; I handed them a box of medicine for some of the hostages shown here. Some of them really need it,” Netanyahu said. “I told a representative to take this box to Rafah; she said no. It was a difficult conversation.”

“We are sparing no effort, both seen and hidden, to bring all of the hostages home,” he continued. “I just returned from Gaza; I met a division of reservists on the field. All of them asked me for one thing only: We must not stop; we must keep going until the end.”

Netanyahu said that the media has been wrong in its reporting throughout Israel’s operation to root out Hamas from inside Gaza.

“We do not stop; we keep fighting, and we will be deepening the fighting over the coming days; this will be a long battle, and it is not close to being over,” he added.
