6,000 terrorists crossed the border into Israel on October 7 and committed the atrocities.

Of these, 4,000 have been eliminated so far and another 2,000 remain.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's and my order to the IDF and all security forces is sharp and clear: beyond the supreme goal of disbanding Hamas and demobilizing Gaza - to pursue and eliminate everyone without limit and in any situation, from senior to junior.

This is the order of the murdered and the fallen and this is our duty as a people and as a country - and we will abide by it.
