Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called on Hamas terrorists to ‘surrender now’.
His warning came as Israel’s Defence Forces said they are closing in on their number one target – top Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
Reports have suggested that Sinwar, who has been dubbed Gaza’s Bin Laden, is in hiding at an address in northwest Khan Younis – a southern city being encircled by IDF troops.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called on Hamas terrorists to ‘surrender now’
Israel has said that more and more Hamas fighters are giving themselves up as ground operations are ramping up across the Gaza Strip.
The IDF continued its onslaught against Hamas on Sunday as dozens more terror suspects were pictured bound, stripped and lined up on their knees.
Footage shared by Israeli media shows Israel Defence Forces (IDF) troops rounding up scores of men and transporting them on the back of trucks.
The men are believed to have surrendered in the Jabalia refugee camp and other areas around northern Gaza, with Israeli outlet Walla saying they were stripped ‘to rule out the possibility that they were carrying weapons’.
One clip shared to social media shows Palestinian men lined up against a wall.
One man then steps forward to give his assault rifle to the Israeli troops with his hands in the air, while others behind him hold their up their identification cards.
