Netanyahu tells UN that Israel ‘must finish the job’ in Gaza

In his speech to the United Nations general assembly in New York, Netanyahu said that “Israel must finish the job in Gaza as fast as possible”.

He said the “final remnants of Hamas are holed up in Gaza City”.

Speaking to the Israeli hostages remaining in Gaza, via loudspeakers facing towards the territory, Netanyahu said he would not rest until all the hostages are brought home. To Hamas, he said:

Lay down your arms. Free all [the] hostages now … If you do, you will live. If you don’t Israel will hunt you down.

Before he started speaking, dozens of delegates in the hall walked out. There were boos and cheers.
