Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected calls for a ceasefire saying it would be tantamount to a "surrender to Hamas," as military operations expand into Gaza.
During a news conference on Monday, Mr Netanyahu was asked if he would consider stepping down from the Israeli government following international uproar.
“The only thing that I intend to have resigned is Hamas. We’re going to resign them to the dustbin of history,” Mr Netanyahu replied. “That’s my goal. That’s my responsibility.”
