Netanyahu assures GOP senators that ‘greatest’ part of operations in Gaza are over

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reassured Senate Republicans that the “greatest part of their operations” in Gaza is complete during a video conference on Wednesday.

Netanyahu gave Senate Republicans an update on the status of the war, speaking with them for about 10-15 minutes before taking questions. The prime minister’s virtual meeting with Senate Republicans comes in the wake of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) comments last week where he criticized the Israeli prime minister, saying he “has been too willing to tolerate the civilian toll in Gaza.”
