JAKARTA - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the war would continue even though Israel agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas
Citing Al Jazeera, Monday, June 24, Netanyahu indicated that he would not agree to any agreement calling for an eight-month war to end in Gaza.
"The goal is to restore those kidnapped and overthrow the Hamas regime in Gaza," Netanyahu said in an interview with Israeli media Channel 14, on Sunday, June 23 local time.
Tens of thousands of Israelis have consistently protested against Netanyahu and his government. They demanded that elections be held early and there was an agreement to repatriate the prisoners.
Last month, US President Joe Biden announced a ceasefire proposal containing a six-week battle break and the release of several Israeli prisoners in Gaza, and Palestinian prisoners who were trapped in Israeli prisons.
The exchange allows for further negotiations for a permanent ceasefire.
Although US officials claim Israel is the initiator of the peace proposal, a number of Israeli and Netanyahu officials say otherwise. They promised to continue fighting until Hamas found it.
