Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that a date has been set for an Israeli invasion of Rafah, Gaza's last refuge for Hamas terrorists refusing to give up hostages.
The date was not disclose as a new round of cease-fire talks take place in Cairo, Egypt.
"Today I received a detailed report on the talks in Cairo, we are constantly working to achieve our goals, first and foremost the release of all our hostages and achieving a complete victory over Hamas," Netanyahu said.
"This victory requires entry into Rafah and the elimination of the terrorist battalions there. It will happen – there is a date."
