"We are more determined than ever to complete the task and destroy Hamas," said Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. Israeli politicians are reacting to the IDF strikes on Hamas in the Gaza Strip, with some expressing support and others criticizing the move. Finance Minister Smotrich and Otzma Yehudit head Itamar Ben-Gvir both voiced their support for the strikes, emphasizing the need to destroy Hamas and return hostages. Education Minister Yoav Kisch called for the release of hostages. However, Democrat leader Yair Golan accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of using the strikes to distract from his dismissal of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar."
