Israel’s Foreign Minister Eli Cohen demanded Hamas not to harm any hostages. Addressing the press conference on the Israel-Palestine conflict, the Foreign Minister also said that this is an evil act and the devil will be defeated. Eli Cohen said, “Israel is at war. We are in a war and we did not choose to start this war but we are facing a vicious terror organisation Hamas. It's an evil not created even by the devil. In the last decades, I don't think that we saw such sins - maybe only in ISIS. Hamas is the proxy of Iran. Hamas executed a historical massacre that the world will not forget.”“There is no dispute in regards to the land of Gaza. We gave the Palestinian Gaza till the last millimetre. There is no dispute in regard to the land,” he added. “I want to assure you that we will defeat the devil because we have no other choice. There are many Israeli and others from different nationalities who have been held hostage. We are committed to bringing them back in the spirit of mutual responsibility. We demand the Hamas not to harm any of the hostages,” said Eli Cohen. Notably, Hamas on October 07 launched a “surprise attack” on Israel, firing a barrage of rockets into the southern and central parts of the country. The estimated death toll in the Hamas attack in Israel and subsequent battles has jumped to 800. According to the Israel Health Ministry, 2506 people injured have been taken to hospitals, including 23 who are in critical condition and 353 who are seriously wounded, as per reports.
