Consul General of Israel to Midwest India, Mumbai, Kobbi Shoshani, spoke out on the ongoing conflict between Tel Aviv and Hamas, asserting that terrorists who target Israeli and Jewish people must understand they are putting themselves at great risk. Shoshani emphasized, 'If people try to kill, burn alive, or slaughter our children, parents, and wives, they must expect that we will reach them—this time or another.'

'Every terrorist targeting our Israeli and Jewish people should know they're at risk,' Shoshani reiterated, warning terrorists of the heavy consequences for their actions.

Addressing the issue of hostages, Shoshani explained that resolving this crisis is Israel's utmost priority, noting the internal debates on the best approach. He stressed that freeing hostages, including women, young girls, and the elderly, is a significant burden for Israel.

In related events, the Israel Defence Forces announced the killing of Hamas minister Abed Al-Zeriei in Gaza, who was responsible for fuel and funds distribution for terrorist activities.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for intensifying military efforts against Hamas, stating that increased pressure is essential for achieving war objectives, including the safe return of hostages. Netanyahu warned that Iran and its allies aim to entrap Israel in a terrorism stranglehold but affirmed Israel's commitment to countering threats on all fronts.

Moreover, the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, blamed on Israel by Iran, has escalated tensions, with Iran's Revolutionary Guards promising severe retaliation.
