Israel Will Stand Alone
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to halt the war in Gaza during a speech marking the country's Holocaust memorial day, declaring that Israel will stand alone if necessary.
Netanyahu's statement came in response to international pressure and criticism from world leaders urging a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
Despite calls for a pause in the fighting, Netanyahu remains committed to an invasion of Rafah and defending Israel against attacks.
He vowed that no international pressure or decision would stop Israel from defending itself.
Yom Hashoah, the day Israel remembers the 6 million Jews killed during the Holocaust, holds great significance.
This year, the ceremony took on additional meaning following the deadliest attack against Jews since the Holocaust, which occurred on Oct. 7, 2021, when Hamas militants killed over 1,200 people.
Israel responded with military action in Gaza, resulting in over 34,500 deaths and displacement of about 80% of its 2.3 million residents.
