Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked US President Joe Biden in a telephone conversation on Tuesday for the “continued and unequivocal support” for his country following the attack launched by Hamas from the Gaza Strip on Saturday, which he described as a “savagery not seen since the Holocaust.”
The head of Government provided some details of the atrocities that the radical militiamen would have committed during their offensive.
“There have been hundreds massacred, families eliminated in their beds, in their homes, women brutally raped and murdered, more than 100 kidnapped, including children,” Netanyahu said.
The leader maintained that since his previous conversation with Biden “the scope of this evil has only worsened.”
“They took dozens of children, tied them up, burned them and executed them. “They beheaded soldiers,” he said.
Referring to the massacre that occurred that same day at a music festival near the Gaza Strip, which left 260 dead, he said: “They shot down these young people, who came to a nature festival. “They just put five jeeps around a depression in the ground and, like at Babi Yar, mowed them down, making sure to kill everyone.”
“They are even worse than the Islamic State and we must treat them as such,” Netanyahu said, without clarifying whether he was referring to the perpetrators of these events or the Palestinian people of the Gaza Strip, where Israeli airstrikes have been devastating entire neighborhoods. in recent days, causing hundreds of deaths.
