Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that defeating Hamas is the “supreme goal” of the war on Gaza, in remarks that were criticised by the hostages’ families. “We want to bring home both the living and the fallen – this is a very important mission,” Mr Netanyahu said at a function in Jerusalem marking Israel’s Independence Day. “But in war there is one supreme goal – and that is victory over our enemies, and we will achieve it,” he added.
