Benjamin Netanyahu has just responded to the new peace deal between Israel and Hamas, thanking President Trump and his team. He responded in Hebrew, but here’s the translation:
A great day for Israel. Tomorrow I will convene the government to approve the agreement and bring all our dear hostages home.
I thank the heroic soldiers of the IDF and all the security forces, thanks to whose courage and sacrifice we have reached this day.
I thank from the depths of my heart President Trump and his team for their mobilization for this sacred mission of releasing our hostages.
With the help of the Almighty, together we will continue to achieve all our goals and expand peace with our neighbors.
יום גדול לישראל. אכנס מחר את הממשלה כדי לאשר את ההסכם ולהחזיר את כל חטופינו היקרים הביתה.
אני מודה לחיילי צה״ל הגיבורים ולכל כוחות הביטחון שבזכות אומץ ליבם והקרבתם הגענו ליום הזה.
אני מודה מעומק ליבי לנשיא טראמפ ולצוותו על התגייסותם למשימה קדושה זו של שחרור חטופינו.
בעזרת…
