以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡周日与美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥一起表示,他和美国总统唐纳德·特朗普“正在就加沙问题展开全面合作与协调”。
内塔尼亚胡在耶路撒冷办公室会见卢比奥后向媒体表示,“我们有一个共同的战略,我们不能与公众分享这一战略的细节,包括地狱之门何时打开,如果我们所有人质没有得到释放,直到最后一人。地狱之门肯定会打开。”
上周,特朗普表示,如果哈马斯周六中午之前没有释放所有人质,就应该放弃停火协议,让地狱之门打开。
哈马斯于周六按照协议的要求释放了三名活着的男性人质,哈马斯此前周一表示,将暂停释放人质,直至另行通知。
内塔尼亚胡周六晚召集安全内阁讨论下一步行动,但在声明中未透露以色列将采取何种行动。
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump “are working in full cooperation and coordination” on Gaza, the premier said on Sunday alongside US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
“We have a common strategy and we can’t always share details of this strategy with the public,” Netanyahu said, “including when the gates of hell will be open, as they surely will if all our hostages are not released, until the last one of them.”
Netanyahu made the comments to the press after meeting with Rubio in his office in Jerusalem.
Last week, Trump suggested that if all of the hostages were not freed by Hamas by midday Saturday, the ceasefire should be abandoned and “let hell break out.”
Hamas released three living male hostages on Saturday, as required by the deal, after having said on Monday that it was suspending hostage releases until further notice.
Netanyahu convened his security cabinet Saturday night to decide on next steps, but gave no indication in statements about what Israel will do.
