Jerusalem, Dec 13 (EFE).- Israel will continue its campaign in Gaza \u201cuntil the end\u201d, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday.<\/p>
Netanyahu was visiting with Israeli troops of the IDF\u2019s Armored Corps 460th Brigade, the day after US President Joe Biden warned Israel it was losing support due to the \u201cindiscriminate\u201d bombing of Gaza, which has killed over 18,600 people and injured more than 50,000.<\/p>
\u201cWe are continuing until the end. There is no question whatsoever about this,\u201d Netanyahu said, according to an official press release.<\/p>
\u201cI also say this in light of the great pain, but also in the face of the international pressures. Nothing will stop us. We are going on to the end, until victory, nothing less.\u201d<\/p>
In remarks at a private donors’ event that were reported in US media, Biden also said Netanyahu needed to make changes to his government, a coalition made up of far-right and ultra-religious parties that are opposed to a two-state solution with the Palestinians.<\/p>
\u201cI want to express deep appreciation on behalf of all citizens of Israel for your efforts in the fighting, for the sacrifice, heroism and success,\u201d Netanyahu told the troops.<\/p>
The UN General Assembly on Tuesday adopted by a large majority a resolution calling for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, days after the United States vetoed a proposed Security Council resolution to the same effect. EFE<\/p>
